Sweden West Coast Kayak Adventure
Kayak Sweden’s West Coast: Bohuslän Archipelago
10 day trip 8 days kayaking
An exciting kayaking adventure! Sweden’s west coast is a first class destination for sea kayakers. On this tailored itinerary, we’ll paddle and explore the thousands of granite islands and skerries, canals, fjords, nature reserves and picturesque fishing villages that make up the Bohuslän.
We start with a bus transfer from the cultural city of Gothenburg to Lysekil and our country guest house. For the next eight days we island hop through a maze of narrow channels and craggy granite outcrops, mixing camping on wild beaches with cosy lodge stays. Sea birds cruise overhead and seals welcome us in the outer archipelago.
We follow fishing boats into charming seaside villages and sample tantalizing local seafood as we taste and paddle our way through this smorgasbord of Swedish adventure. We finish at a delightful Hotel near the town of Stromstad and say goodbye to Sweden over a farewell meal.
