Kayaking Safari, Nallikari, Oulu

In Oulu, we are fortunate because our sea-area and the Oulu River Delta offer stunning and sheltered routes for kayaking. This safari offers you the chance to experience Oulu from a completely different perspective. The Kayaking Safari from Nallikari to the Oulu River Delta is designed just for you. You don’t need any previous experience in kayaking, but the safari will surely provide a pleasant experience for more experienced kayakers as well.

Our adventure begins at our Nallikari Experience Center, which is located right in front of the Nallikari seaside, in the basement of the Nallikari Aalto hotel building, at Nallikarinranta 10. The safari is conducted safely under the guidance of our knowledgeable and experienced guides. Before hitting the water, you will be trained in the basics of kayaking, and we will go through all the necessary safety matters so you can enjoy your trip worry-free.

The kayaks we use are particularly easy for beginners. They are stable and easy to steer. The route offers both natural beauty and cultural landscapes, as the safari takes you from Nallikari through the scenic Mustasalmi channel to the beautiful and diverse landscapes of the River Oulu Delta. We will navigate around numerous islands in the delta, and we might also visit Oulu Market Square. Nallikari serves as one of the official landing spots of the River Oulu Delta kayaking route, from which three different water channels lead to the Oulu River Delta.
