The Stockholm Archipelago consists of 25.000 islands in every conceivable shape and size. Most of them are uninhabited in one of the wildest areas of Europe. Perhaps most fascinating is the fact that the wilder part of the archipelago is only approximately one hour from the centre of Stockholm. If you could do just one nature excursion in Stockholm, then you should paddle kayak in the outer archipelago. Anyone can do it!

Our tour is at an easy tempo to suit both beginners and more experienced alike. Most who paddle with us have no previous experience, but the techniques are easy to learn. After a short training session in the stable kayaks we set off on our journey of discovery. Our tour guides are experienced paddlers also with knowledge of the archipelago, its history, flora and fauna. They know their way to the finest islands, skerries and inlets. Surprisingly few visitors come here and it is easy for us to find a deserted island to take a swim and stop for a rest with a well-prepared lunch.

"Just an hour away, this was a perfect escape from the busy life of Stockholm…
This was a trip for lifetime memories!"

Dina Sorokina, New York, USA
