What you can expect

Join a fun and easy kayak adventure made especially for families with kids and explore the beautiful Stockholm Archipelago together. Meet your guide at the kayak center and get set up with kayaks and life jackets. Learn how to paddle safely and comfortably during a short, hands-on session to ensure kids and adults feel confident and ready for the calm waters ahead. We usually paddle double kayaks so kids will be sharing kayaks with adults.

Paddle at a relaxed pace through the sheltered waters of the Bogesund Nature Reserve, spotting seabirds, curious wildlife, and stunning granite islands. Listen to your guide share fun stories and fascinating facts along the way to keep kids engaged and curious.

Stop on a small island for a traditional Swedish fika, where families can snack, stretch their legs, and enjoy the fresh sea air. You are also more than welcome to bring a swimsuit for a Baltic dip if you wish. After the break, we head back onto the water and watch out for the reserve’s array of native wildlife including beavers and coastal birds. At the end of an unforgettable experience, it’s time to begin the journey back to the starting point, admiring the last of the views along the way.
