GreenKayak is an environmental NGO that engages people in the fight for cleaner oceans. You are invited to paddle our kayaks for free under two simple conditions - spend your time in a GreenKayak collecting trash and share the experience on social media #GreenKayak.
Our impact
GreenKayak works to reduce the amount of garbage floating in our coastal waters. The idea is simple – get a free GreenKayak trip in return for collecting trash & sharing this on social media. GreenKayak also shares knowledge, and helps people of all ages get out on our beautiful oceans and take action.

Together, we paddle for cleaner oceans!
We are happy about the partnership with GreenKayak. GreenKayak combines action and fun with an important issue – environmental protection – and makes a visible contribution to making Hamburg cleaner.
I am absolutely into GreenKayak who solves problems with plastic very concretely by borrowing kayaks for free to collect waste while paddling. I tried it myself and can highly recommend taking a tour. We mention GreenKayak as a good example of a local initiative in the EEA’s new report on plastics.
I have seen cod caught in the Oresund, which has had a whole plastic cup in its stomach …We see that the GreenKayak returns with trash from the canals every single day.

Have you heard about GreenKayak communities? They're awesome! They make it super easy for you to connect with other people who love paddling, and you can share your pictures and experiences with them too.
Whether you're new to a city, your paddle-buddy cancelled on you, or you just want to meet new people while doing something good, you can make a post and invite others to join you as you paddle for the oceans!
And let me tell you, volunteering for the environment is always worth a photo! We can't wait to see your pictures, whether you've caught a huge amount of garbage or found something totally bizarre.
If you're interested, we'll even post the best of your photos on our social media channels.
