Sea-Kayak Tourism


The project seeks to promote the development of sea-kayak tourism in Greenland by ensuring that local guides and instructors can obtain internationally recognised certifications. The aim of the three-year project is for Greenlandic instructors earn the qualifications they need to be able to provide internationally certified training, in so doing ensuring that the project can continue. The Greenlandic kayak is deeply rooted in Greenland’s history and culture, and an understanding of its importance, as well as the skills kayaking requires, will play a central role in the project. During the project’s final phase, the focus of activities will shift to entrepreneurship and Greenland’s development as a destination.
