Description

Paddle into the heart of Svolvær, the gateway to Lofoten, where calm, glassy water mirrors the iconic spire of Svolværgeita. Seagulls soar overhead as you glide beneath low bridges and along the quiet harbourfront. Towering granite peaks rise straight from the sea, creating a dramatic contrast to the gentle movement of your kayak. Sunlight and stillness set the tone for this immersive start in northern Norway’s majestic island region. Next, we’ll trace the breakwater past the Fisherman’s Wife and move toward the open sea. Don’t forget to like and follow.
