Kayaking Excursion in the Stockholm Archipelago – 1 Day
The Stockholm archipelago is a hidden gem when it comes to kayaking! With 30000 islands, sometimes just bare rocks surfacing from the Baltic sea, sometimes covered by beautiful small red cabins half hidden on the shore by pine trees. The water of the archipelago is a beautiful blue-green, often see through and very inviting for a dip! We offer the perfect kayaking adventure, that fits the first time paddler through to the seasoned kayaker. This one day guided kayaking trip starts from Stockholm city center and is all inclusive.
Typical itinerary:
-
- Meet-up the guide in town
- Transport to the kayak base with the guide by vehicle
- Gear up with life jacket, paddle and a kayak (single or double)
- Short safety brief and kayaking crash course at the base

- Dip in the Baltic sea / siesta on a warm cliff / hike on the island / cliff jumping
- More kayaking
