General information
This tour is operated by Sommarøy Adventure.
This guided tour takes you to unique places that are only accessible by kayak or boat. Sommarøy is a world-class destination for sea kayaking and a popular spot for local paddlers. Among the islands, you will find hidden gems of white sandy beaches surrounded by 900-metre-high mountain peaks.
On this guided tour, we take you to some of the highlights around Sommarøy. Moving slowly at water level, we glide between the islands, explore the coastline and take time to go ashore on a beach for a good break along the way.
Our local guides know the area well and have deep knowledge of its history, surroundings and wildlife. They will share fascinating stories about life in this historic fishing community, both past and present.
If you are looking to improve your kayaking skills, this is a great opportunity to learn. We provide stable double kayaks for the tour, but if you have some experience, you can choose a single kayak. This can be decided on site.
