Very special (sea-)kayaking experience in East-Greenland

Departure in September 2022

Region: Arctic

Destinations: Greenland

Ship: m/v Hondius

Highlights: Kayaking, Arctic Hare, Polar Bear

Did you know, that the Inuit people made up the word "kayak" (qajaq)? I learnt that during my trip on M/V Hondius. It makes sense to strengthen paddling skills in the area where kayaking was born: Greenland. I did five days adventurous (sea-)kayak-training in Scoresby Sund and its sheltered channels. Fantastic! Gorgeous! Awesome!
