A great way to see the bay,

this trip is also our longest single-day paddle

Difficulty Level

2

This is an adventurous trip. It is very fun, but it is definitely a trip where you are exposed to the elements and can get dirty, sweaty and, tired.

Paddlers should be comfortable spending almost the entire day actively paddling in a kayak.

This super fun trip offers guided kayaking from Seward's doorstep along the coast of Resurrection Bay. Hike up to a hidden waterfall, and enjoy an optional hike up to an abandoned WWII fort halfway through the day.

See what lies beyond the next cove as you paddle your sea kayak a bit further into Resurrection Bay. We’ll stop and walk a short, forested trail to a cascading waterfall, identifying the wildflowers as we go.

Next, on to North Beach and if time allows, we’ll hike to historic Fort McGilvary and explore the maze of underground passages in this abandoned WWII bunker.

After lunch, jump back into the kayaks and learn about the alpine glaciers and captivating sea birds that you’ll see on our return. Share the ocean waters with comical looking puffins, leaping salmon, Stellar sea lions and more.

Our handmade, fresh backcountry gourmet Lunch & Snack is provided

Photography

We use sit-in kayaks for this trip. You can have your camera around your neck or in a dry bag — we do have water-tight compartments in all of our sit-in kayaks for you to store your gear, but it can be hard to access these compartments while on the water. 

Remember; you are on water! You are ultimately responsible for keeping your awesome camera gear dry!

Essential Details

A waterproof rain layer is essential for this trip.

It's important to bring comfortable and warm clothes to wear  to ensure that your experience is as pleasant as possible.

We highly recommend that you avoid wearing cotton or denim layers.
