Top Haines Wildlife Watching

Spend a day immersed in Alaska’s stunning nature during this kayak trip on Chilkoot Lake. Depart the town of Haines with your private guide and enjoy a leisurely few hours of kayaking on the uncrowded lake. While you paddle, keep your eyes peeled for wildlife such as salmon, bald eagles, and even brown bears.

Focus on Haines with this guided tour of the area, focusing on nature, photography, or both. This is a small group experience (max 4), so you’ll get lots of personal attention. Your guide can offer advice on how to get the best composition when framing your shots, and will also fill you in on the area’s rich cultural and natural history stories. This is about a half day tour that stops at several places along the way.

Kayak the waters of southeast Alaska and the Inside Passage without worrying about equipment. Let your guide provide you with all the gear you need and offer a safety-briefing orientation suitable for all skill levels. Photograph and take in the scenery of the Inside Passage as you paddle in your 2-person kayak. After several hours on the water, finish this tour with a beach-side lunch.
