Mosterøy
The course runs over two days and qualifies for level two on the "våttkort" certificate from Norges Padleforbund.
The paddling is carried out as a trip, starting at Mosterøy and you paddle in and around the islands of Klosterøy, Fjøløy or along the coast of Stavanger depending on what the weather and wind permit. Upon completion and passing of the course, you will receive a plastic card with a course certificate "grunnkurs hav" (standard course ocean), together with your membership number in the Norwegian Paddling Association, NPF (Norges Padleforbund). Most clubs and businesses renting out kayaks require that you hold this certificate.
