Half Day Kayaking and wildlife viewing in a Small Group
A small group wildlife encounter and kayaking excursion near Fox Island and along the most rugged and beautiful side of Resurrection Bay.
Difficulty Level
This is typically a mild paddle, but it operates outdoors, so you should be prepared to paddle in all types of weather.
Participants should be comfortable spending 1-2 hours actively paddling in a kayak, and with riding in a small boat for several hours.
Take our well appointed vessel over to the wildlife-rich eastern shore of Resurrection Bay to search for and kayak among marine mammals, puffins and bald eagles
On this trip, we check out the coastline around Fox Island at the head of Resurrection Bay, keeping our eyes open for whales, sea lions, porpoise, and other marine mammals. When we arrive at our paddling destination, we have roughly 2 hours on the water to enjoy some of Alaska's most stunning coastline, our Emerald Coast, from the intimate perspective that only comes from the seat of a kayak.
Our kayaking trip along the East side of Resurrection Bay, known as the Emerald Coast, offers a breathtaking journey through one of Seward, Alaska's most serene and picturesque areas. The landscape is in this part of the Bay is incredibly stunning, with lush green cliffs, sparkling waters, abundant wildlife, and tidal pools filled with interesting creatures. This less-traveled part of the bay invites adventurers to explore hidden coves and quiet shorelines, providing a peaceful and fun escape from busier routes. The Emerald Coast’s vibrant scenery and unique charm make it a memorable Alaskan experience. This trip is also a great way to get away from the crowds without having to sacrifice an entire day of your itinerary.
This trip is super cool — we love being able to take advantage of the less-frequented side of the bay to try and facilitate incredibly memorable wildlife encounters, and it's one of the few trips offered in Seward that can offer so much in just a half-day.
Please Note: We reserve the right to cancel this trip in the event of serious weather or very rough seas.
