The Arctic is one of the last truly wild places on Earth—a realm of towering icebergs, vast glaciers, and wildlife thriving in extreme conditions.  Paddling through these waters puts you right in the heart of it all. Imagine gliding through silent fjords, weaving between sculpted ice, and watching a whale breach just meters away. It’s an adventure that few get to experience but one that stays with you forever. Both Greenland and Svalbard offer unparalleled kayaking opportunities, but they each have their own character. Greenland boasts colossal icebergs, rich Inuit culture, and remote wilderness camps. Svalbard, on the other hand, is home to dramatic pack ice, polar bears, and endless summer daylight.  But here’s the thing—kayaking in the Arctic isn’t as simple as booking a flight and renting a boat. The remoteness, extreme conditions, and logistical challenges make planning an independent expedition almost impossible.  This is why you should join our LIVE WEBINAR and get all the insider knowledge you need! In an hour-long session, seasoned Arctic kayak guide Toby Story will walk you through what it’s really like to paddle in these remote regions, how to prepare, and what you can expect.  Plus, you’ll get firsthand stories from the ice—the kind you won’t find in any brochure!
