Why take this tour?

Come explore like the locals do! We get out and away from the crowds of town on our boat and we never have more than 4 people in a mixed group of guests! Our boat & kayak tour is for anyone who ever dreamed of seeing the wilds of Alaska from the water. With 3 full hours on the water you will see a range of marine and inter-tidal life. With our comfortable, high speed boat we aren't tied to the waters you can reach from a dock departing kayak tour. We go where the best water and the most wildlife is on every tour. We can’t make any promises on behalf of mother nature but regularly see everything from sea stars, jellyfish, seals, and bald eagles to the occasional humpback whale, black bear, and of course the ever elusive orca! *Max 6 guests upon group request.
