Discover Lund

Lund offers access to seascapes and islands beyond its coastline. For planning your trip, you can distinguish between several options: connections to named destinations, kayaking activities with specific time details, and easy access to art, crafts and food. A short wooden promenade runs along the marina; the village also has several arts and crafts offerings.

Water Connections and Kayaking

Lund Water Taxi provides daily transport to Sarah Point. Sarah Point is the starting point of the Sunshine Coast Trail; reservations are required for these trips. If you are planning the journey, bear in mind that reservations are required and check the schedule. For more than 30 years, Lund Water Taxi has also provided connections to Savary Island. Daily transport is specified for Sarah Point, while Savary Island is notable for its long history of service.

There are also different types of kayaking activities. Terracentric Coastal Adventures offers seasonal kayak rentals in Lund. Footprint Nature Explorations offers six-hour, one-day kayak tours as well as multi-day tours lasting two to six days. These time details distinguish a six-hour outing from a multi-day trip; kayak rentals are a separate, seasonal offering.

Promenade and Sheltered Gazebo

A short wooden promenade runs around Lund's marina. In Klah Ah Men Lund Gazebo Regional Park, a large gazebo provides shelter from the weather. This gives visitors two distinct local points of interest: a path by the harbour and a sheltered gazebo in the park. The promenade is described as short; no specific walking time is given.

Art, Crafts and Workshops

Pollen Sweaters sells pure wool sweaters and hats made in Lund. Tug-Guhm Gallery Studio displays artworks by more than 50 local artists. Rare Earth Pottery creates functional and sculptural ceramic art in the Raku and wood-firing styles. The offerings range from wool clothing and works by local artists to ceramics that are both functional and sculptural.

The Tidal Art Centre holds rotating workshops for residents and visitors. The program and opening hours vary depending on exhibitions, events and classes. If you want to plan a visit to a specific workshop, check the relevant dates and opening hours in advance.

Baked Goods and the May Event

Nancy’s Bakery Café is known for its blackberry cinnamon buns and fresh baked goods. The Lund Shellfish Festival is a seasonal event held annually in May, featuring stalls selling fresh seafood. Exact event dates may vary; check them if you are planning your trip around the festival.

For planning your schedule, several different details are relevant: the reservation requirement for transport to Sarah Point, the seasonal availability of kayak rentals, the duration of kayak tours and the festival’s recurring month of May. Which of these matters most to you depends on whether you are planning a connection, a specific amount of time on the water or an event date.
