Discover the beauty of Bergen’s coastline on this beginner-friendly 2-day guided kayak tour with Fjord Expedition. The adventure begins with a transfer from Bergen to Syltøy in Øygarden, where you’ll embark on a kayaking journey through serene fjords near the North Sea. Paddle through sheltered waters, try your hand at fishing, and spot wildlife like eagles and seals as your guide shares stories about the region's rich cultural and natural heritage.
After several hours of paddling, arrive at a remote islet where you'll stay overnight in a restored farmhouse. Here, you’ll help prepare a traditional Norwegian dinner made from locally-sourced ingredients, including fresh fish and crabs. The historic farmhouse offers a cozy setting to unwind and learn more about the area’s fascinating history. The next morning, enjoy a hearty Norwegian breakfast before embarking on a new kayaking route back to Syltøy.
This tour offers a perfect blend of adventure, history, and natural beauty. With opportunities for wildlife sightings, hands-on cooking, and peaceful exploration, it’s ideal for anyone seeking a unique and immersive experience of Norway’s coastal landscapes.
