This includes a life jacket, drysuit, thermal undersuit, gloves, and shoes, as well as the kayak and paddle.
Once on the water, you will be surrounded by a breadth of captivating natural scenery, including, of course, Mount Kirkjufell, most famous for its starring role as “the mountain like an arrowhead” in HBO’s award-winning TV series, Games of Thrones.
As you head towards ‘Seal Skerry’, you will also see firsthand various species of birdlife, as well as some of the resident seals that call the area home.

Upon returning to the shore, you are invited to warm up with a hot beverage on our deck.
