Why take this tour?
The Norwegian Coast is a magical venue for self-guided sea kayak trips, so slow down and get away from it all with copious fresh air and exercise!
This year choose a vacation that really lets you slow down, revitalize, and come alive with the pleasure of rocking ocean beneath you on a self-guided sea kayak trip.
Powered only by your paddle, let the feeling of freedom sweep over you as your kayak glides effortlessly over the ever-changing elements of the ocean.
Sea Kayak Touring is ideally suited to Norway’s fjord indented coastline, and makes for the perfect holiday. Norway’s premier paddling venues, the Lofoten Islands, Helgeland’s Coast, and the World-Famous Western Fjords are our playgrounds. We have paddled these coastlines thousands of times and have seen it all, we have been out in summer storms, gales, squalls, high pressure clams, torrential rains, and pea soup thick fog, we have experienced all the different arctic climactic conditions and know how they affect Norway’s coastal lineaments, we have played in all the funky currents, in short no one in Norway knows these waters better then us, period.
Sea Kayaking is also great family fun, splashing on the seashore, camping on the banks of fjords, fishing for supper, crackling campfires & smores, starlit nights and cozy tents.
