Tour Description

Paddling offers remarkable opportunities for outdoor and nature enthusiasts. The ever-changing sea creates an immersive experience, and when you're in a kayak, you become intimately connected with nature. Everything feels closer, and you're in proximity to the sky, the coastline, and the weather all at once.

The tour's starting point in Vågsvåg sets the stage for an exciting adventure. Paddling towards Vågsberget and Holvik allows you to explore a coastal area rich in natural beauty. The presence of small islets and reefs provides a natural refuge from the sea that lies just beyond, making the journey even more captivating.

The presence of an old trading and guest house on Vågsberget adds a fascinating historical dimension to the area. Learning about the history of the trading post at Vågsberget provides insight into the economic significance of this location in Ytre Nordfjord. The trading post at Vågsberget is not only one of the oldest in the region but also held the title of being the most important trading post until the late 1800s. Its strategic location near the abundant fishing grounds around Vågsvåg and Torskangerpollen likely contributed significantly to its importance.

Exploring such historically rich places while kayaking along the coast adds a layer of cultural appreciation to the outdoor adventure. It's a reminder of how human history and natural landscapes are intertwined, making kayaking not only a thrilling activity but also an opportunity to connect with the heritage and stories of the region.

All participants will be provided with the essential gear for a safe and enjoyable experience. By dressing appropriately and bringing warm clothing, you can ensure that your kayaking experience in Måløy remains comfortable and enjoyable, regardless of the weather conditions.
