Leave the crowds behind and experience the wilder side of Sitka’s coast on this small group 4 hour wildlife boat and remote island beach adventure.
Traveling through the rugged islands that weave through Alaska's coast, we’ll watch for whales, sea otters, bears, sea lions, and seabirds while learning how these waters shape life along the coast.
Our route follows the weather and tide, and each trip we land on a remote beach for a snack and a short walk through driftwood and tide pools.
With plenty of time to explore, photograph, or simply take in the silence, this trip offers a rare look at Sitka’s untamed beauty. Guided by an expert naturalist, it’s a chance to slow down, connect with nature, and experience Alaska away from the crowds.
