What's included

"Your adventure begins the moment you step off your cruise ship and are greeted by your friendly kayaking staff, who will outfit you in everything you need to stay warm and safe on your kayaking adventure. Our staff will launch you from a specially bit ramp that is guaranteed to keep your shoes dry. Your team of guides will choose the perfect adventure for your group based on the wind and tides and lead you along the scenic and historical Sitka coastline. With 90 minutes of kayaking, we enjoy a leisurely pace filled with plenty of photo opportunities. Keep an eye out for a wide variety of seabirds, intertidal life, and marine mammals!

The maximum weight is 275 lbs anyone over that weight and possibly some under may not be able to safely fit into the kayaks, participants must also be able to fit into our 3XL PFD’s (life vests). Young participants must weigh at least 40 pounds to properly fit our child-size PFDs.

I’ve never been sea kayaking before, is that a problem?

We offer sea kayaking tours to suit every experience level. Our 2 hour Sitka Sound Kayak Adventure is especially well-suited for those who want to try sea kayaking for the first time. We begin every tour with an equipment orientation and paddle lesson to ensure you’ll be comfortable, safe and have a great time.
