About the experience
16 HOURS BASIC COURS
This 16hr sea kayaking course is a cours you will have good time to gain the know-how and confidence to venture out on your own multi-day adventures after completing the course.
Our certified, professional instructors provide an in-depth focus on:
- sea kayak paddling techniques,
- safety on the water,
- rescue drills for yourself and others.
Includes paddling kit hire - kayak, paddle, life vest, sprayskirt, wetsuit, waterproof jacket and booties. We recommend you wear a woollen base layer, bring shoes you don’t mind getting wet, and a towel.
You will receive your NPF Våttkort – Level 1 and 2 – a nationally recognised qualification allowing you to rent kayaks individually or with friends.
The freedom of the ocean awaits you!
We also offer this courses as a weekend andventure. You will learn how to pack a kayak, camp-craft and cooking.

Tilleggsinformasjon
Packing list:
We use drysuits during the course. Underneath this you must have at least one set of wool and wool socks. When it is cold in the sea it is good to have a double layer of wool or wool and fleece under the drysuit.
Important!
Extra clothing: Wool longs, wool sweater, wool sweater, wool socks, hat (warm), mittens (warm), warm jacket for breaks. These are extra clothes that you bring with you in addition to the clothes you will wear under the drysuit. You pack this either in double carry bags or a waterproof packing bag of over 13 l that can be used in both the kayak, bag and backpack. The kayak has "tight" storage compartments, but it is an advantage to pack either in double carry bags or in waterproof packing bags.
Food and clothes are packed in separate packing bags. A regular waterproof bag or small bag can be used, but they are not always suitable since these can be difficult to get down into the storage compartment. If you do not have access to packing bags, you can borrow one from Kvåleskajakk.
Otherwise, bring: Hat (windproof), seat pad.
A large lunch and goodies (nuts/chocolate) in waterproof packaging are great. It not only helps with energy, but also if you are cold! Water/juice in a small bottle available on deck. Hot drinks in a thermos are always good to have.
Easy to bring (nice to have); Caps, sunscreen and sunglasses, medicine (if you need it), first aid kit for your own use, knife, toilet paper.
Welcome aboard!
