Støtt is one of the many places on Helgeland where you can rent a kayak. Paddling among the islets and skerries at Støtt is an adventure for those who want to explore the Helgeland coast from the sea.
Your adventure
If you have a wet card (paddle certification) or equivalent qualification, you can rent a kayak and set out on your own. We prioritize your safety and will tailor the trip to suit your needs and preferences.
Whether you are alone, with your significant other, or a group of friends, kayaking is always the ultimate experience, no matter the season. By renting a kayak from us, you will also receive recommended routes and a tour program tailored to your skills and group.
It is entirely possible to bring your kayak on the express boats along the Helgeland coast and to Støtt, but remember to reserve space onboard when you book your ticket.
You can also park on the mainland, and we will pick up both you and your kayak.
You must be in good physical shape and have prior paddling experience to rent a kayak. The weather can change, so you need to be comfortable in the water and able to handle the kayak in waves and wind on your own.
