Kayaking at midnight in Lofoten is the best activity Lofoten has to offer! On the "outer side" (north side) of Lofoten you can experience the midnight sun all night, since the open horizon to the north means that the sun does not hide behind the mountains. This is the perfect place to experience the midnight sun. We paddle out from the north side of Austvågøya and paddle out into Gimsøystraumen. Here it is only the Norwegian Sea horizon to the north and you can see the midnight sun coming down towards the sea surface, gliding over the horizon and going up again. Without ever going down. When you're in the kayak, you feel as though you are sitting on the ocean as the midnight sun glides over. The sea stretches from under the kayak to the sun. Kayaking at night often provides extra peace and quiet on the trip. You will still encounter seabirds such as eider ducks, cormorants, gulls and perhaps even sea eagles. In addition, you may be lucky enough to encounter sea animals such as porpoises (a small whale), seals, otters and mink. A completely unique experience.
