"The best paddling destination I have seen on three continents!" - owner Mike Graney There is no better way to see Southeast Alaska's dramatic majesty and abundant wildlife than by kayak. Due to the rugged terrain and excellent protected waterways, the original inhabitants traveled almost entirely by boat. Whales, Alaskan brown bears, sea lions, seals, otters, deer and many species of birds inhabit this area in great numbers. The forests are pristine. Sitka spruce, hemlock, and yellow cedar are the predominant trees on the shoreline, and the forests are open and primal. Our expeditions incorporate natural and cultural history, and some of our visited sites have been used for millennia by the Tlingit and Haida people. Our guides excel in interpretive and hard skills and have a deep knowledge of local wild edibles they can share with you to augment meals if interested.
