Overview

Howdy!

My name is Tim.

I love to take new people exploring on the ocean to share what I love about where I live.
My tour is designed to see the wilds of Alaska from the water and not from the window of a van. Think salt spray, not gift shops.

With 3 full hours on the water you will see a range of marine and inter-tidal life. Unlike a dock launched kayak tour I don’t have a firmly set route. The Huckleberry (the cabined vessel in the photos) allows us the mobility to find the best water, wind, and wildlife of the day.

After leaving Ketchikan, I will get you geared and lower the tandem kayaks off the boat and into the water. Then we will paddle some beautiful uninhabited, Alaskan coastline together! I strive to make sure that the tour stays accessible regardless of your experience level.

After the paddle we will return to the Huckleberry for a snack. The cruise back into town is fast, comfortable, and guaranteed to get you there in plenty of time to catch your cruise ship!

After leaving Ketchikan, and dropping anchor, I will get you geared up in high quality equipment and lower the tandem kayaks off the boat and into the water. These tandems are made to be friendly to a first time paddler and a seasoned veteran will appreciate their responsiveness. I strive to make sure that the tour stays accessible regardless of your experience level.

After the paddle we will return to the Huckleberry for a snack. The cruise back into town is fast, comfortable, and guaranteed to get you there in plenty of time to catch your cruise ship!
