this great sea kayaking adventure by suiting up in
quality raingear and lifejackets before transferring
to a floating kayak base camp by motorized
inflatable raft. The short and invigorating journey
on these fully licensed vessels takes you past Sitka
and the surrounding mountains. Upon arrival at the
base camp, you’ll be instructed in the use of safe,
oceangoing, two-person kayaks by knowledgeable
staff. Groups of four to six kayaks will be led by
an experienced guide, well versed in paddling
techniques and the marine environment of the area.
Each of the waterways traveled offers unique
attractions, be it colorful inter-tidal
invertebrates, an eagle swooping from the tree tops,
or the grandeur of the lush rainforest. You may even
see a brown bear, harbor seal, or Sitka black-tailed
deer.
