The landscape surrounding the Reinefjorden in western Lofoten is straight out of a Disney fairytale. It offers a contrast like no other with steep granite mountains rising straight out of the ocean and a shoreline dotted by photogenic red fishermen’s cabins. Explore the picturesque coastline, look out for wildlife and take in the spectacular views of the mountains on this relaxed paddle in the sheltered waters of Reinefjord.
Kayaking is a way for us northerners to get as close to nature as possible, and we wish our visitors to get that experience as well. We will show you the area’s highlights on this three-hour tour, tailored to suit those who have not tried kayaking before. We will start the trip from a quiet bay to familiarise ourselves with the kayak and learn basic kayaking techniques with the paddle and basic safety rules. Then, we will paddle around nearby islands and fishing villages (Reine, Sakrisøy, Hamnøy) or inside the Reinefjorden, depending on the weather conditions.
Our experienced local guide will tell you stories about the landscape, fishing villages, and life in and around the archipelago. Take the chance to ask questions about the local nature and culture as you paddle through some of the most beautiful scenery in the whole of Lofoten.
We always keep the groups small, and each participant will have time to get personal coaching from the tour guide. Safety is always our number one priority, and you will be in good hands throughout the entire experience.
The weather in Lofoten is ever-changing, which is part of the islands’ charm. We recommend to dress according to the weather and that you wear a base-layer in wool, since it wicks moisture away from your body and you won’t get cold even if you sweat or get wet.
