Full Day Fishing & Sightseeing Combo
Exclusive charter from $2550 | Full Day Fishing & Sightseeing to the Kenai Fjords National Park
About
Sightseeing areas include the Kenai Fjords National Park, and we go to the Chiswell Islands, famous for the many species of nesting seabirds, and the Aialik/Holgate or Northwestern Fjord Glacier areas of the majestic park. It is normal to see humpback whales, orca whales, harbor seals, stellar sea lion, Dall’s porpoise, and all manner of sea birds including puffin, cormorant, auklet, and muir.
When fishing, we target halibut, ling cod (in season), black bass, and silver salmon (in season). Our goal is for each person to catch his or her limit of halibut or salmon, though these Seward fishing trips specifically take time to focus on wildlife viewing.
You’ll enjoy personalized attention on our combo trips—your captain is happy to pause for photo ops and answer questions as we encounter whales, sea lions, bird rookeries, glaciers, and other marine wildlife. Because we spend extra time sightseeing, actual fishing time is reduced, so limiting out isn’t the goal—but making an unforgettable day of both is. Depending on weather, tides, season, and location, we typically target salmon from just a few feet off the beach out to about 90 feet of water, with “mooching” (drift-fishing bait) often producing the best action. Our captains are avid salmon anglers who share proven local techniques and years of knowledge to dial in the right combination of presentation and spot to get fish biting.

What to bring
What to Wear: Layers are key — it can swing from calm sunshine to wind and rain in minutes. Bring a waterproof jacket, warm hat, and gloves and extra layers you can store inside the boat. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat help against both sun and glare off the water. Footwear matters too; non-slip, waterproof boots or shoes keep your feet warm and safe on deck.
Bring Food and Drinks: Pack lunch, snacks, and plenty of water (or coffee). It’s a long day on the water! Or purchase a meal plan from us for your trip and enjoy a carefree vacation on the water.
