Inside Passage Kayaking Adventure

Duration - 6.5 hours Overview This tour starts in Skagway, AK, where you will board the Haines-Skagway Fast Ferry. It is a scenic and narrated 45-minute ferry ride over to Haines, AK. Upon arrival to Haines you will be greeted by your professional kayak guide for the ocean kayak trip of a lifetime. Your 2 person kayaks will be set up on the beach & will be a short 5-minute walk from the ferry pier. We’ll choose from a variety of beautiful ocean paddles depending on sea conditions and weather. Your guides will outfit you with a PFD (personal flotation device) and spray skirt. After a safety briefing and equipment introduction/fitting, you are off and paddling. You will be on the water for about 2 hours. We have seen eagles, sea lions, seals, Dall's porpoise, humpback whales or other marine wildlife along our way. Your guide is an expert naturalist and will share their extensive knowledge about the fjord, marine wildlife and local geography. We will likely stop off at a remote beach to stretch your legs and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Southeast Alaska. Once off the water, stay on the beach to enjoy a waterside picnic-style lunch. (Allergies & meal preferences can be accommodated). In an instance where ocean conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll head to our backup location on Chilkoot Lake which is a 30-minute van ride along the Chilkoot River. This backup location is surrounded by mountains with alpine waterfalls and salmon spawning beds. More Info * Activity level: **Moderate** * Ages 8+ * Max. Weight: 300 lbs.
