Ketchikan Kayaking

Island hopping by kayak is something you'll not want to miss. You'll sail in your kayak looking for wildlife in the protected waterways Pennock, Snow and Gavina Islands. From the water's edge you'll see an active Bald Eagle's nest while sailing alongside Ketchikan's historic waterfront, including the historic buildings of the frontier red light district.

Although there are no guarantees you may see pods of Humpbacks and Orcas and even occasionally Alaska's endangered Stellar Sea Lions. Salmon returning to spawn leap around the kayaks and occasionally we'll watch as eagles swoop down to snatch one from the surface and return it to the nest to feed their young. Kingfishers and Great Blue Herons feed along the shore and Raven are ever present.
