About the course
The foundation course gives you a solid base in sea kayaking over two full days. You learn paddling technique, seamanship, safety, rescue, weather understanding and navigation. The course follows the Norwegian Paddling Federation's official program and awards you the Våttkort — proof that you can paddle safely and independently. After the foundation course, you can rent a kayak from Kajakkguiden and join group trips. Equipment is not included in the course price, but kayak and paddling equipment can be hired — rental of kayak and suit comes in addition.
