Långholmen Kajak was founded in 2012 as a kayak rental on Långholmen in Stockholm and has since had a simple vision – to make the water in Stockholm and around Sweden accessible to as many people as possible.

In spring 2012, Daniel, who lived on Reimersholme near Långholmen, felt a strong urge to get out on the water and enjoy the beautiful Pålsund Canal. Having grown up by the water in Piteå in Norrbotten, Daniel saw it as natural and necessary to be able to get out on the water easily and enjoy a few hours. The lack of an easily accessible way to get out on the water, and a strong conviction that more people in the area shared this need, led Daniel, together with his wife Samra and his brother Anton, to start their own kayak rental – Långholmen Kajak.

Today we are passionate about giving other people the chance to get out into nature in general and onto the water in particular – to give people a break from everyday life and, in the long run, contribute to better health and well-being. We believe that the combination of nature experience and healthy exercise you get from kayaking is the ultimate way to boost your well-being. For us, the nature experience comes first and the gear second. We therefore want to make Sweden's waters accessible by offering the best possible products, so that you get the most out of the nature experience without paying more than necessary. That is why we offer a wide range of kayaks, SUPs and accessories for paddlers of all levels, for both rental and sale.
