Sea kayak course at island Mosterøy

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).
