Question:
Is it safe? I have never gone sea kayaking before.

  
 
  Answer:
You need no prior kayaking experience to do this trip. The wide archipleago always provide sheltered bays and passages if the conditions are windy. Still you have to use your common sense and respect that you are not an experienced kayaker. Just be sensible and careful and you'll be fine The kayaks are really steady and once you're sitting in it you'll realize that there is no need for worry. Actually, the more you pack your kayak, the steadier it will be.
  
 

 
 

Question:
Do I need to be fit?

  
 
  Answer:
You do not have to be fit to go sea kayaking. It is really easy and you completely decide your own pace. Sea kayaks are supprisingly quick with just a little effort. Also, we'll teach you some paddling technique so that you will use your back and not your arm muscles when paddling.
 
 

 
 

Question:
Can we just put up camp anywhere?

  
 
  Answer:
Yes. In Sweden we have something called "the right of public access", which among other things mean that you can camp wherever you want, as long as it is not in an enclosed area. You'll see that camping in the archipelago is something really natural in these surroundings.

"Sea kayaking in Saint Anna was an adventure in every sence of the word rather than following the same old beaten tourist trail. The landscape was incredible and not having a guide made it lots more fun! It was one of the best travel-
ling experiences I've had!"
