We are excited to announce that we are accepting applications for all three guide levels for the 2010 season in Norway. We will be accepting applications from December 01, 2009 through to March 01, 2010.

Coastal Odyssey has more than 10 years of experience as an expedition guide service, we are leaders in sea kayak instruction and have an industry wide reputation for safety, service and great food. We have guided thousands of paddlers on wilderness trips and are thrilled that so many guests become repeat clientele. Our trips are physically satisfying vacations that are designed to be relaxing, safe, thought-provoking and fun.

Today Coastal Odyssey has completed its 10th operational season and is Norway’s leading Sea Kayaking Company that serves over 3000 clients per season.

Coastal Odyssey is seeking individuals to fill three different levels of guide positions:

Sea Kayak Guide Internship
Coastal Odyssey offers guide internships to individuals that have no prior guiding experience, and to whom we feel has the potential of someday becoming a great guide.

Sea Kayak Day/Assistant Guide
A Coastal Odyssey Day/Assistant Sea Kayak Guide is an assistant leadership position.  This position is an excellent opportunity to learn and practice hard and soft skills, gain confidence in being a leader, and become a sound decision maker.
