Fjord Serenity - Sea kayaking tour in Iceland
Available 15th May - 15th September
Sea kayaking in Iceland is a popular sport by locals. This tour will tak you to the Hvalfjördur Fjord (Whalefjord) where you'll head out to the serene and beautiful fjord - ask your guide about the story behind the name, why the fjords is named after whales. The fjord is framed by moutains which streach up to more than 1000 meters. The kayaks are stable and easy to manouver. You do not need prior experience since your guide will teach you the technique on location. We'll paddle along the coast and enjoy the magnificent views. Then we take to shore and relax in the quiet Icelandic countryside.
Our kayaks are Dagger Exodus, the best open water kayaks available. They are closed boats so no water gets into them. You glide peacefully through the water, powered by your paddle strokes. You will be wearing a lifejacket; a specially made dry jacket and wet pants that will keep you warm even in the harshest off circumstances. Almost anyone can go paddling with us. Our guides will teach you everything you need to know. They will also paddle with you and are always in reach if anything should happen or if you simply have a question about the scenery!
