How experienced do you have to be?
For the kayaking day trip no previous experience is required as our professional guide will teach the technique on location.
How fit do you have to be?
Our day trips are on the whole pretty easy going and most people can do it. But sea kayaking is an outdoor sport set in the Icelandic Nature. The average person in a relatively good shape should have few problems (would reconsider if you are seriously out of shape).
Will there be a guide?
All our kayaking tours are operated by experienced and certified professional sea kayak guides (and same goes for any tour we operate for that matter).
Can anything be taken in the kayaks ie camera, are they permitted?
You can take things in the kayaks (e.g. waterproof camera would be a good idea). Not recommended to take too much in the day trip (as there is really no need for it) but you can fit all necessary equipment you need for the multi day tours in the kayaks.
Do kayakers need any special clothing or equipment?
For the day trip bring warm outdoor clothing, i.e. fleece sweater and pants, change of clothing and swimwear.
