New! Outer Coast Adventure – George Island and Elfin Cove

This one of a kind charter takes you on a stunning adventure ranging from Glacier Bay all the way to Elfin Cove on the Northern tip of Alaska’s famous Inside Passage.
Along the way we have the opportunity to see Humpback Whales, Orca, Sea Lions, Seal, Eagles, Black/Brown Bears and a collection of bird life.
Sometime during the day, we will take a short hike on George Island to a World War II artillery site. This gun was active from 1942 to February 1944. This relic of a different time allows you to take a trip to the past while also enjoying the rugged beaches and the magnificent scenery.
Elfin Cove, often described as a small ‘drinking town with a fishing problem’ supports a large sport fishing economy. The entire town is built into the rugged terrain of the outer coast and the boardwalk snaking around the town allows you to explore this gem of Southeast Alaska.
This one of a kind trip allows you to enjoy a truly unique experience where the ocean meets the calmer waters of the Inside Passage. Join us for an unforgettable day on the water and experience the wonders that have captured the imaginations of explorers for decades.

New! Hot Springs Adventure

Experience one of the few all-natural hot springs in southeast Alaska. Travel along the Inside Passage while seeing a variety of sea and bird life. The ocean part of this journey almost always yields multiple sightings of Whales, Sea Lion, Sea Otters, the occasional Orca, and a vast myriad of bird species.  An active Sea Lion rookery is also on the route, and it is always a treat to enjoy these magnificent animals.
White Sulfur Hot Springs sits nestled on the outer coast of Chichogof Island.  Once on Chichagof Island, take a short overland hike to the Hot Springs, which offer a unique view of the temperate rain forest and even an opportunity to see Brown Bears.  Situated at the back of a wide bay exposed to the open north Pacific Ocean, White Sulfur Springs offers the unique opportunity to enjoy a therapeutic soak in piping hot water while listening to the crash of bone-chilling waters washing upon the rocky shore mere feet away.
Change into your suit to relax and enjoy the beauty and solitude of Southeast Alaska as you soak in the soothing waters.
