About
What you can expect on our Seldovia Wildlife Tour
Welcome aboard the Discovery or Rainbow Connection for an amazing tour of Kachemak Bay and the community of Seldovia. Our first stop will be at Gull Island, one of Alaska's largest bird rookeries, where you will get up close and personal with as many as 15,000 sea birds. Our most common sightings are Bald Eagles, Tufted and Horned Puffins, Glaucous-winged Gulls, Black-legged Kittiwakes, Pigeon Guillemots, Pelagic and Red Faced Cormorants, Common Murres as well as many other species of seabirds.
We will continue through scenic Eldred Passage where we frequently find otters, sea ducks, whales, and a variety of other marine life. Learn about the Islands, Fjords, and waterways as we cruise towards Seldovia.
We arrive in Seldovia around 12:30pm. Once in Seldovia you will have time to enjoy one of the local restaurants or you are welcome to bring a picnic lunch. Explore the historic boardwalk, visitors center, museum, local trails, or to photograph the local beauty.
We depart Seldovia at 3:00pm with a scheduled return time of approximately 4:30pm. We like to take the opportunity to stope for whale viewing and so our return time can vary.
