Stand-up paddling on the Kulla Peninsula is all about picking your moment. On a still day the water around Mölle and Arild lies flat, but once the wind picks up the open coast turns choppy fast.

Where to paddle

In Mölle, boards are rented out in the harbor by the hour or for the day. From Arild harbor you can follow the shore toward Kullaberg's cliffs and coves or head out onto Skälderviken bay. The boards are stable enough to kneel or sit on, and a small child or a dog can ride along.

Safety

  • Check the wind forecast and avoid offshore winds that push you away from land.
  • Wear a life vest and a leash, and stay within easy reach of the shore.
  • Keep out of the bird protection zones on Kullaberg's north coast from March 1 to July 15.
  • The water is cold outside high summer, so dress for an unplanned swim.
