There is nothing like the feeling of having a whole ocean to you. During the winter when the crowd left the ocean is quiet and peaceful. There is nothing in the world, which will fill you up with that much of positive energy. Listen the waves, the splashes of the kayaks and paddle along the frozen coastline of Lofoten.
Join us on an exploration of the scenic fjords and islands. Kayaking even during the colder wintertime, definitely offers you the ability to be closer to nature than a lot of other activities do.
We will be paddling Northeast and all around the beautiful “frozen” islands. We provide delicious snacks and hot drinks for you to maintain energy while we paddle. While you are resting, watching the birds or sea life and taking in the views from your kayak your guide will tell you stories about the life and nature of Lofoten.
For this trip, it’s not necessary to have any previous experience. 99% of our guests never kayaked before.

5.00Amazing experience with great communication, especially as someone who's never kayaked before! We stopped halfway on the islands for some hot drinks and biscuits. I didn't want to take my phone but the guides took loads of photos and videos of us so wasn't missing out, and the views in Eggum are stunning. Would highly recommend!
100 % highly recommandable

5.00Kayaking in Lofoten was absolutely unforgettable! The peaceful water and stunning scenery made for a perfect adventure. Our guide, was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable, even beginners. Paddling through the fjords, spotting wildlife, and enjoying warm drinks with breathtaking views was a dream. Highly recommend this trip, especially with Lucio as a guide!

5.00we love to go on a short guided kayak trip during our holidays and this tour did not disappoint. all the recommended gear for kayaking in winter, like a drysuit, gloves etc., was provided and we stayed cozy warm during the trip. Carlos was very kind and talkative. we even saw an eagle kind of close. should we visit the Lofoten again during summer, we‘ll definitely do another tour!

5.00A magnificent kayak trip with snow-capped mountains in the background and superb weather. The equipment loaned is effective, dry suit, gloves, and the explanations for sailing are clear. The coffee and biscuit break in the middle of the hike on an island is very nice, as are the supervisors.
Unforgettable experience!

5.00Me and 3 friends did a winter kayaking tour at Northern Explorers in December and it was amazing! We received a dry suit and other good equipment, so we stayed warm and dry all the time. Don't forget to wear very warm socks! We did a trip around some islands and kayaked through soms ice. Surrounded by islands and mountains we were completely immersed in nature and it was very quiet. The polar night sky had amazing colours and it was not dark at all. Furthermore the guide Carlos was very professional and funny at the same time. Definitely a great recommendation!
Indescribably beautiful kayak tour!

5.00We were allowed to experience a private kayak tour in Valberg with 2 super nice, competent and spontaneous guides! From A to Z everything was great, the communication, as well as the excursion itself was very professional and warm. To that the weather and the surroundings were just fantastic. We will remember this day for a long time and look forward to seeing you again in the summer.
