Spitsbergen Kayaking

If you’re longing for the marine side of Arctic life, kayaking gets you closer to the world of icebergs, bays, and beautiful polar seas than anything else

Spitsbergen Kayaking

Region: Arctic

Destinations: Svalbard

The marine experience of Spitsbergen kayaking

Kayaking is one of the most invigorating, close-contact ways to explore the striking Spitsbergen coastline. Accompanied by a veteran kayak guide, you’ll have the opportunity to paddle between icebergs or pack ice, observe Arctic animals, and soak up all the sublime silence – interrupted only slightly by the crackle of ice or seawater dripping from your paddles.
