Regardless of how many nights you stay, appart from the inhouse activities and the kayaking with the Seals, I would suggest at this stage not to pre-book too many excursions. If you feel like doing more excursions, then rather book these directly from the Lodge.
Please advise if there are any activities you would like us to organize for you.
