Kayaking Adventure in Grundarfjörður

Kirkjufell mountain in my home town Grundarfjörður is one of the most photographed mountains in Iceland. Travellers who pass through Grundarfjörður usually don't leave without snapping a photo of the mountain and they're always trying to find a different angle.

If you're one of those travellers who wants to photograph the iconic mountain or if you just want a different experience then I recommend a kayak trip on Grundarfjörður where you can paddle calmly towards Kirkjufell.

You can get close to an amazing wildlife where you can see seals and birds.

Vestur Adventures can offer those kind of trips with a guide. They have ten sit on top kayaks and sail from Grundarfjörður. It's a wonderful experience and I highly recommend this wonderful activity.

They even offer drysuit for everyone so you can just drop in from the street and don't have to make any special arrangements because you will not get wet (unless you really make an effort).

You can also book a Midnight Sun kayaking tour with them, if you're visiting Iceland in the summertime, a wonderful activity to do late at night.

This blog includes a few photographs and a video that I made from one of the paddling trips for Vestur Adventures.
