What To Expect
We start the day at 09:00 AM with a meetup at our base in Stockholm where you’ll get to know your guide and the rest of the group. After a short introduction and a quick gear check, we head to the nearby kayak station and get ready to hit the water.
By 10:30 AM we are on the move, paddling through the calm waters of the archipelago in stable sea kayaks. We spend about two hours exploring quiet surroundings, far from city noise. Expect wide views, small islands, and maybe a few birds passing by.
Around lunchtime we land on a peaceful island. There is time to swim, stretch your legs, or simply enjoy the setting. We prepare lunch together over the fire and take it slow before heading back out for another two-hour paddle.
In the late afternoon we take a snack break and continue to a scenic shoreline where we will set up camp for the night. After pitching the tents it is time to relax. We cook dinner together, light a fire, and enjoy the evening by the water as the sun sets.
