Highlights
  • XXLofoten AS - Lofoten’s nature offers a breathtaking array of contrasts, and kayaking serves as an excellent medium to immerse oneself in these wonders. Seated just above the waterline in a sea kayak, you harness the power of your own physique to traverse the sea. The tranquility, enveloping natural beauty, and the liberty to move freely render sea kayaking one of our most sought-after activities.

The evening ambiance enhances the adventure, providing exceptional lighting for photography enthusiasts. Viewing Lofoten’s towering mountains from the vantage point of your kayak offers a perspective as awe-inspiring as the view from their summits.

For our excursions, we utilize stable tandem kayaks.

Our guide will greet you at our headquarters located at Svolvær harbour, where you’ll receive thorough instructions and have your gear adjusted for the journey.

The kayak outing is designed for novices and those with minimal experience, although swimming proficiency is a prerequisite for safety. The waters near Svolvær harbour are serene, making them ideal for first-time kayakers.

Photography buffs are encouraged to bring their cameras, as the scenery offers countless moments worthy of capture.

Fun way to see Svolvaer - Toby was an excellent guide who was also clearly an experienced kayaker. We had amazing weather with blue skies and still waters, which definitely helped our enjoyment of this activity. If you fancy a gentle tour of the bay, this is the way to do it.

Amazing ! - Amazing experience with a lovely instructor I highly recommend at the begging of the trip in Lofoten Islands to get information for other visits and activities

Fantastic and easy experience - We were fortunate enough to have a good weather day for this outing. It happened to be the one sunny day we had in 9 days in Lofoten. The weather certainly helps to add to the enjoyment of the trip but it is not entirely necessary. If the seas are swelling, it’s unlikely this trip will go on as you do kayak out of the safety of the harbor for some of the trip. Having kayak experience is not necessary for this trip but it will become completely obvious on the trip who has done it before vs. who has not. This I would say is an entry level kayak excursion and those with a lot of experience and looking for a more adventurous trip may want to seek other options. It is still of course very cool to kayak in this area and look all around at the amazing scenery that Lofoten has to offer. Also great is doing this “night” kayak experience in daylight during the summer when the sun is not setting.

So much fun! - We had THE best time kayaking. Guide was patient and fun. Some of our group had little experience and Lawrence was creative getting everyone into and out of the kayaks. Highly recommend!

Solo traveler, great experience - Wonderful experience on the water with our guide, Sander (sp?), and a group of other lovely travelers from various parts of the world. I was a solo traveler and felt welcomed and am so grateful to have participated and learned more about kayaking and history of Svolvær.

No one even showed up - I would not book it again. No one showed even up at the meeting point. I texted several times and finally managed to get someone to answer the phone just to be informed that it was never supposed to take place and it's TripAdvisor's mistake. Zero accountability.
