Orcas Cove Sea Kayaking

If you imagine Alaska as a place to get away from it all and enjoy the serenity of the wilderness then the Orcas Cove sea kayaking is the tour for you. Our 3 hour tour is a kayak and boating adventure that allows visitors to escape the crowds in Ketchikan. Orcas Cove is the name of the place where we kayak, we don't see orcas every day, but with 3 hours on the water we do have excellent chances to spot marine wildlife. The true highlight of the Orcas Cove tour is exploring the secluded coves and rainforest islands by sea kayak with very knowledgeable guides, although the snack of local smoked salmon and hummus from our favourite local cafe' on board the mothership after paddling is ranked a close second by many of our guests.
