Take to the seas to experience the dramatic and otherworldly Faroese coastline.
Kayaking in the Faroe Islands is a wonderful way to explore the natural beauty of the islands at sea level and see the stunning landscape from a whole different perspective. The kayaks are sea-kayaks that are very safe, guests will be in either double or single kayaks. All abilities will be catered for with either Novice Sessions or Intermediate and Above Sessions.
Put things back in to perspective as you paddle below sea cliffs that rise 2,500ft straight out of the water.
At a festival dedicated to hitting some serious trails, this is a great opportunity to rest weary legs whilst still getting out there.

Which session is suitable for me?

Intermediate & Above Sessions are suitable for those with prior experience or those that are very confident in kayaking in the open sea. Guests should be confident in using the kayak spray deck if required. These sessions are 3 hours (not including travel time).
