Welcome to a full day of enjoyable paddling, learning and nature experience in Bohuslän's beautiful archipelago! This event combines a guided kayak tour, swimming as well as training and certification for Paddle Pass White – Level 0, according to the Swedish Canoe Association's standards.
This tour has an English speaking very experienced guide named Lee Shiel who is Certified Sea Kayak Leader 1 and EPP level green.
No previous experience is required – just curiosity, joy and a willingness to learn!
During the day you will learn:
- Lifting, carrying and putting in the canoe
- Setting up the equipment

We paddle together at a leisurely pace around Hjältön, stopping at a beautiful beach for lunch or coffee and enjoying the sea, the silence and the company.
