The mission of IRKLAKOJIS is to encourage active way of life by providing the environment-friendly sport and active rest facilities. They put a big effort to promote sailing sports in Lithuania.

They are the pioneers of landsailing in Lithuania as they became Blokart dealers in the year of 2007. They operate Blokart sailing school in Nida, where you can take sailing lessons, rent a blokart and race between each other.

Irklakojis also organizes multi-day tours, where you will share experiences with a small group (maximum up to 12 people) of international travelers. This way of travelling often creates intense companionship and minimizes any impact on the environment.

Each IRKLAKOJIS tour is accompanied by a trained local leader/guide who will provide you with information on the history, culture and the landscape of the places we visit.
