The charming coastal city of Alesund is located on the western coast of Norway and is situated on the Norwegian Sea.

Your sea kayaking in Alesund adventure begins at the meeting point, where you and your group (a maximum of 8 paddlers) will be greeted by your experienced and friendly instructor. After an initial safety and security briefing, you'll be equipped with a paddle, a life jacket, and a wet suit (if needed). Please note that splash decks and dry bags are available to borrow upon request. Next, your instructor will provide an introduction to kayaking and paddling techniques with a focus on safety. Now, the fun starts! It's time to hop into your kayak and practice paddling under the supervision of your guide. Once everyone feels comfortable, you'll start paddling in the Norwegian Sea away from the bustling city of Alesund and into nature.
