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. In a kayak Hermanö’s diverse and magnificent coastal scenery and Vallerös stunning sandy beaches are destinations you always long for.

Testimonials
Everyone was very satisfied and happy after the weekend. As always, an honor and a privilege to spend quality time with you. Wonderful that you also managed to find the last days of summer. We will certainly want to do something together with you agasin in the future. Until then, have a great time!
Testimonials
Can't think of anything that would need to be changed in the implementation or setup. It's perfect as it is today. Good care of us participants from the first moment in Ladan (the Barn) to the final summary on the return home after the tour. Safe and secure leadership. Felt OK even for someone like me, a kayak beginner, when we were going out among the high waves and the white foam. I also especially liked the strategy of "whirling around" among all the islands! I have previously participated in two other tours with other organizers that are marked with Nature's Best, but the kayak tour with you is by far the best arranged experience. Thank you for a great experience! Will be happy to return!
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!
Testimonials
Thank you for a great experience! We had a very successful trip! On the positive side, I would especially like to emphasize: Flexibility and good organization in terms of changes in the plan according to weather conditions, good and competent guides, well planned length of the tour, and good food (Bohusburritos was super tasty). Extra plus for bringing some extra paddle jackets. Overall, we felt very well taken care of.

My second trip with Upplevelsebolaget and Oskar as a guide. Good leadership, safe navigation, moderate stage goals, generous and good ability to convey knowledge about paddling, sea, nature and outdoor life, as well as good mood and patience from guide and assistant, made the trip very enjoyable and educational.
Testimonials
It was absolutely wonderful, fantastic environments, super good guide and an incredibly well run tour, down to the smallest detail! The fact that the food was so good and that it was organic and locally produced was the icing on the cake. All participants were so happy.
