Fabulous time! - Michael & Jenn were friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Had a fantastic kayak with all safety gear and instructions for those with no experience. My first time in a sea kayak with pedals and they were perfectly adjusted & worked great!! We also had perfect conditions! Flat & warm water, sunshine and warm temperature . Highly recommend this activity, location and company!!

Very friendly guides, peaceful kayaking - Loved meeting Mike and Jennifer around this quite, peaceful, and beautiful island. The guides are knowledgeable, extremely friendly, and very warm, making the whole experience very fun. They explain kayak and safety for about 30 mins, and then we go kayaking for about 2.5 hours around the island. We observed kelp forests and sea urchins during our trip.

Must do in Skrova - The tour is a must do if visiting Skrova and definitely worth a day trip from Svolvaer (20 minute free ferry to Skrova runs several times a day). I am a solo female traveler in my 40s from Canada. Tour was able to accommodate people of various physical abilities. My guide Senya was super attentive to the small group (2 couples and myself). He had great little antidotes throughout the tour but also gave the group plenty of quiet time to just take in the nature. Highly recommend!

A Perfect Way to Spend an Afternoon! - Mike was very accomodating and kind. He is the perfect guide. Mike was concerned about out comfort and encouraged us in our efforts. During the paddle he told us information about the area. The route was beautiful. We are beginner kayakers but felt safe, relaxed and awed by the beauty. I highly recommend this tour.

Skrova sea kayaking - We enjoyed this so much! We did the afternoon tour and were treated to fabulous guides, stunningly calm sea and spectacular views of mainland Norway as well as Lofoten during our time out on the sea. Mike met us and took us round to the centre and explained everything thoroughly and got us all the kit we needed from dry suits to spray decks etc. After instruction how the sea kayak and steering worked, another local guide (Vani) joined the group and we set off. We paddled round the island and stopped at a beautiful white-sand beach for a break. We saw countless sea urchins and sea birds (including a sea eagle). Both guides were so friendly and chatted about the area, the wildlife, their experiences etc as we paddled and were very interesting to talk with. Mike and Vani were in no rush to get back to dock and this made the whole experience incredibly relaxing and very enjoyable for us all. This was a top highlight of our holiday in Lofoten and was a wonderful way to see the local scenery as well as some marine wildlife too with lots of great input from very knowledgeable guides. I highly recommend this to anyone whether you have done kayaking before or not- you won’t regret it! One tip is that the ferry to Skrova is free for foot-passengers (if you use Torghatten Nord). We caught the 13:30 ferry from Svolvaer and the 21:30 back (this was the only return time available as the times are not regular due to the ferry also serving the mainland as part of its route).This actually worked very well as there was no rush to complete the kayaking and we also had time to have some food at one of the local restaurants. 5/5 - no doubt about it!

Best Activity in Lofoten so far - I am GLAD that we came from Svolvær to Skrova just for this. It was 100% worth it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Svolvær. We took the ferry (it was free) from Svolvær and landed on Skrova with our van. Mike met us at Heimbrygga and escorted us to his new base of operation. He was extremely nice from the very beginning, he gave us ALL the necessary equipment for the expedition (all new and excellent stuff in quality, he then proceed to explain how to go about with the kayaks and off we went. We had an amazing time, saw plenty of sea eagles, cristalline waters and white beaches (we landed on two of them). I was even hoping we would encounter some whales while on the open sea but we were not lucky enough. Still, what an AMAZING experience! A must!

Kayaking at Skrova - Great kayaking at Skrova with guide Senya. Fortune of good Weather, we stoped at one of many beachen and had a swim. The water is fantastic clear. The water around Skrova is amazing. After the kayaking we went for a hike to the highest spot of Skrova. From there we could look down on our beach. This combination of kayaking and hiking made today, to a day to remember.

Amazing kayaking around Skrova - We spent a wonderful day kayaking around the beautiful island of Skrova. We were lucky and had a sunny day even though the forecast didn‘t say so. We started the tour after a short but very helpful introduction into seakayaking. The equipment was in very good conditions. Our guide Michal showed us around the island, telling interesting stories about the history of Skrova and the wildlife. We paddeled to the lighthouse and took a short break at one of the beautiful white beaches. The kayakingroute depends on weatherconditions and kayaking experience of the guests. Michal was a very caring guide and made everyone feel comfortable.
