Paddling a kayak puts us in touch with Alaska's wildlife and nature in an upclose and personal way. Gliding along at waterline silently and seeing a whale surfacing right besides you is one of the things you might experience on a kayak trip in Alaska.
It's the perfect way to explore the coves and islands in the state with the country's longest coastline and the many inland lakes and rivers.

We offer kayaking trips in Prince William Sound with its many fjords and islands. We have explored the Valdez side including the Columbia Glacier and Glacier Island which is about halfway between Valdez and Whittier.

The Savonoski Loop in Katmai National Park and a trip to the Twin Lakes in Lake Clark National Park, Wood Tikchik State Park in Southwestern Alaska are some of the places that are spectacular to explore with a kayak.

We have seen Orca and Humpback whales, seal lions,harbor seals resting on ice bergs, rafts of see otters, black bears,porcupine, mountain goats and Sitka black -tailed deer.

The Sound's unpolluted shorelines provide a varied assortment of invertebrates for shorebirds to feed on:
These include Common Loon, Red-throated Loon, Sooty shearwater, Double-crested Cormorant, Pelagic Cormorant, Great Blue Heron, Canada Goose, Green-winged Teal, Barrow's Goldeneye, Harlequin Duck, White-winged Scoter, Surf Scoter, Black Scoter, Common Merganser, Red-breasted Merganser, Common Murre, Pigeon Guillemot, Marbled Murrelet, Kitzlitz's Murrelet, Horned Puffin, Tufted Puffin.Common shorebirds include the black oyster-catcher, semipalmated plover, greater yellowlegs, spotted sandpiper, wandering tattler, common snipe, and least sandpiper.Common gull and gull-like birds include the glaucous-winged gull, mew gull, black-legged kittiwake, and Arctic tern.The upland mosaic of habitats provide nesting, resting and feeding areas for a variety of birds including the rufous hummingbird, belted kingfisher, violet-green swallow, tree swallow, Steller's jay, black-billed magpie, common raven, northwestern crow, bald eagle, chestnut-backed chickadee, brown creeper, dipper, winter wren, varied thrush, hermit thrush, Swainson's thrush, golden-crowned kinglet, orange-crowned warbler, yellow warbler, Wilson's warbler, pine grosbeak, common redpoll, pine siskin, savannah sparrow, dark eyed Junco, golden-crowned sparrow, fox sparrow, Lincoln's sparrow, and song sparrow.

This is one of the early season trips we offer starting in May every year. Prince William Sound can often be rainy, but the beauty and tranquility of the Sound is very rewarding and there is much to be explored in this magnificient rain forest along Alaska's coast. Departure points are Whittier or Valdez which receives a significant less amount of moisture. Some areas require a water taxi to reach certain areas, gain more time in a particular area or to avoid open water paddling with less advanced paddlers.Besides watching birds and marine wildlife we can paddle among blue ice bergs in those waters that come from the calving tidewater glaciers in the Chugach Mountains and reach the sea. There a countless coves and inlets, waterfalls and beaches to be explored. When the salmon start to run up the clear streams we can paddle among them, watch a whale breach if we are lucky or watch birds dive for smaller fish.

We will set up a tent camp every night, sometimes spending two nights in one place depending on the trip and explore and paddle in the daytime.
