What to expect?
Kayaking in the area is protected and calm and if you are paddling for the first time this is the ideal location. And if you’ve spent plenty of time in the cockpit this is still an ideal location. We pass along skerries and islets and narrow passages and circumnavigate the idyllic island of Bassholmen, with bird sanctuaries, summer grazing animals and quaint old historic buildings. Bassholmen is also our perfect landing spot for lunch, coffee and a nice stretch of the legs.
