Four days of kayaking and happiness! - The sunsets, the starry skies, the islands, the eagles and the sauna! We just got back from four days of absolute happiness kayaking and wild camping in St Anna archipelago. A big thanks to Thomas and his crew for organising this trip so well for us! We would not have managed to bring all the included equipment on our own. We will definatively be back for more adventures!

Beautiful experience all round! - Do the north took care of all the preparation of the equipment. We arrived, got a good introduction and were ready to go! The gear was high quality and in great condition. Being on the water and the islands was just amazing. We felt all elements through mostly sunshine, but also wind, waves and a downpour. A real adventure holiday. We loved it and I’d definitely recommend it for all outdoor lovers.

Pure bliss in the Swedish Archipelago! - Such an incredible experience! We had so much fun kayaking through all the elements, exploring the archipelago and choosing where to camp out of 6000 islands. Do The North made everything so easy for us, 10/10 would highly recommend.

Unforgettable experience - A truely memorable trip in a stunning setting. All the gear was seriously good quality. The tents were easy to put up and pack down, sleeping bags were cosy and we had all the kit to cook some lovely meals in some very scenic spots. There was loads of space in our double kayak for all our kit, I even managed to pack my own pillow in. I would highly recommend this experience. It was amazing!

Perfect! There is just no other way to describe this trip... - Beautiful scenery, great paddling, flawless organisation by the Do The North team...and no previous experience required! From start to finish, there was nothing that could be improved: easy airport transfers, friendly and experienced DTN staff and top-quality equipment for kayaking and camping. Every detail was taken care of - from a daily weather report to fresh coffee and packable pillows. Remoteness has never felt so luxurious... This was our first time sea kayaking but we felt confident with the advice from DTN staff and soon got the hang of things. The kayaks were stable, easy to control and could fit an incredible amount of gear (just as well, because we over-ordered on food...). Paddling in high winds one morning was challenging (and a great workout!) but never felt like more than we could handle. The landscape - or seascape - is stunning, especially the view from Kupa Klint, and ever-changing. We found some great places to camp and really enjoyed the freedom to explore as much or as little of the archipelago as we felt like, each day. For beginner-friendly kayaking, great views, wild swimming and the freshest air you’ll ever breathe, take this trip as soon as you can.
