In a nutshell

Jump into your kayak and discover the south coast of the island of Vågsøy from an unusual perspective, immersed in the nature and the life of the fjord. Leave Vågsberget, an open-air museum-town, behind you, and paddle between the rocks of Gulholmen, and then count the houses of Vågsvåg and Holvik: there's only a handful of them, and they seem to want to throw themselves into the water with you!

The programme

The best thing about paddling along the south coast of the island of Vågsøy is that time slows down, nature draws in all around, and in no time at all, you are first in line to experience the spectacle of a Norwegian fjord.
Don your life jacket and helmet, grab your oar and slip into the water from the harbor of Vågsberget, a perfectly-preserved authentic 17th century Norwegian trading town.
In just a few strokes, you'll find yourself in the shadow of the islet of Gulholmen, surrounded by rocks that seem to have been arranged deliberately by Mother Nature to protect you from winds and currents. It's an important detail that results in less effort, with stunning views!
Glide silently between the great chunks of rock, and keep your eyes open: you might spot some sea birds or an animal roaming near the shore.
Your route takes you past the stilt buildings of Vågsvåg, a tiny dock for fishermen that seems suspended in time, and then on to Holvik, with its multicolored houses reflected in the water.
