SEA KAYAK KRISTIANSAND
Guided tours in the beautiful Skerries of Southern Norway. TrollAktiv offers two venues for guided Sea kayaking. Kristiansand and Arendal
The Kristiansand tour begins at the Guest harbor, very close to the city center and only a short walk from the fish market. The Arendal trip starts at our base in Hove Leir on the island of Tromøy. On both trips our guests are given the necessary equipment and clothing before a review of kayaking safety. The guide will then demonstrate paddling techniques and give you time to practice before we paddle away. The kayak trips follow the coastline and visit points of interest on small islands on route. The direction of the trip will always depend upon the weather conditions. On the route, the guide will explain some local history and point out various wildlife and other sights. We will pass beautiful sandy bays, dramatic sea cliffs and, not least, see the local lighthouses.
On the Kristiansand trip we paddle past the Art museum and the Kilden concert with its impressive architecture. The last part of the tour goes through Fiskebrygga, the famous fish market and its excellent restaurants. Before returning to the Guest Harbor, we paddle past Kongebrygga, which is reserved for the King of Norways yacht. This is a beautiful and historic journey that takes you to some of the highlights of the Odderøya archipelago.
