The combination of a sea kayak and the West Sweden archipelago (Bohuslän) is among the most amazing experiences one can have. An absolute world class outdoor adventure. Our ambition is to pass on that feeling. We simply hope to create memories that will last a lifetime.
For three days / two nights we explore one of Bohuslän’s, and the world’s, finest paddling areas. We visit the most beautiful places, stay at the most idyllic beaches, look out for, and learn about, the area’s flora, fauna, history and traditions. We cook good food together and watch the sun set in the west.
Areas
• 6-8 of June, 11-13 of July, 8-10 of August. Havstenssund archipelago – the hidden sea kayaking jewel of the coast. An archipelago divided by the islands Trossö, Kalvö and Lindö. To the east of the islands, lies a sheltered inner archipelago with sandy beaches and vegetated islands, and on the west side an exposed archipelago of granite as beautiful as an archipelago ever can be.
• 27-29 of June, 25-27 of July, 22-24 of August. Koster Sea Marine National Park – A maze of islands in Sweden’s only marine national park. We look for seals and seabirds, visit Sweden’s westernmost lighthouse and glide around in an islands world home to six thousand marine species.
• 13 -15 of June, 18-20 of July, 15-17 of August. Fjällbacka archipelago – the essence of Bohuslän. Ingrid Bergman romance and a rich maritime history in the world of smooth, polished, gleaming red granite islands hiding sandy beaches, charming wooden houses and picturesque small fishing communities.
• 4-6 of July, 1-3 of August, 29-31 of August. Orust west side – Käringön and Gullholmen are well known island communities, where houses friendly leaning against each other offer a classic view of Bohuslän.

An activity with Upplevelsebolaget builds expectations. When it's not the first time, expectations are high. When I now summarize my impressions, it is quite clear that Jocke, Karro and Daniel exceeded my expectations. I can't give you a better rating. To build a mood, arouse emotions, show that you can do more than you think, offer the best you have, encourage you to step out of comfort zones, provide community and not least a taste of "adventure". THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND THANK YOU AGAIN. Forget our jokes about developing the business model, continue with what you are doing in the same genuine way. Just keep going, please. I have your website as a favorite and will follow you and hope to get back to you as soon as I can. Upplevelsebolaget's Kosterhavet 2012 was the experience of the year. Thank you to all participants and not least the host Jocke Hermansson. Receive this bouquet of seaweed, lichens, trift and lots of bird and seal experiences under a lovely August sun in Kosterhavet. I'm still enjoying it. Thanks. Summer greetings from Skåne

Just want to thank you for the kayak trip with you. It was a really nice weekend even though I had a bit of a struggle with the waves sometimes ;) But I felt well taken care of and safe with your skills. (The only thing I missed was a paddle leash, I was a bit worried about losing it sometimes...) I would love to return on more guided tours!
Testimonials
It was a fantastic weekend and all round great experience – thanks go to you! I’m not sure if I could suggest any changes. What was good for me was that we had good variety of scenery, some good paddling time and also instruction on ‘technique’ as well as great meals – a gold star from Tim!

Many thanks, Oskar, for kindness, patience and skillful navigation in the gneiss labyrinths of the Koster Sea paradise. Exciting and varied kayaking! Unexpected close encounters with giant black-backed gulls gave further thoughts...
