Sea Kayak Rental

Sea kayaks for rent - go explore the lush archipelago of southern Sweden

Welcome to visit and stay here in Svalemåla and make a reservation for our kayaks.

Blekinge archipelago is the closest and the southernmost Swedish archipelago you can find when you cross the bridge from the European mainland between Denmark and Sweden. The location of our holiday village and the kayak rental site, is ideal for quickly getting out in the inner or outer archipelago for a daytrip both eastward toward the archipelago of Ronneby and west towards Hällaryds and Karlshamns archipelago.
Rent both a kayak and camping equipment and explore the islands and skerries. Choose your own perfect island, put up your tent next to the beach and enjoy your own cooked meal while watching the sunset. Camping in the wild is permitted almost anywhere here.

Our kayaks are suitable for both novice paddlers and more advanced paddlers. The kayaks are stable, secure, yet easy and fun to paddle. The cockpit is spacious and the comfort is good.

Double Kayaks:

As an alternative if you are a couple or want to paddle an adult and a child during the trip, we also have four double kayaks,. The double kayaks are have bigger cockpits and increased stability.

We also rent out a double sit-on-top (SOT) kayak on a day with nice weather and warm water, that can carry 2 adults plus one child.

We have 2 Stand Up Paddle Boards (SUP) which can be rented by our cottage guests for 4 hours.

You get the equipment in the morning (you choose start time when booking) and you kayak 4 hours or all day until sunset, before you return the kayaks on our beach.
