Kayaking along the Swedish coast

On Sweden's west coast, an hour north of Gothenburg and about 2.5 hours south of Oslo, is the perfect spot for a kayak trip. You spend the first night in a simple guesthouse right on the water in a small seaside town.

Then you set off on your own route, with plenty of support from our local partner: all the gear, a briefing over coffee and a pick-up at the end, so no backtracking. The route is sheltered by islands, good for families and people with little kayak experience. You paddle from green inner fjords to the rugged outer archipelago, past seabird colonies and fishing villages, and camp on deserted islands. Harbour seals are common.
