Ketchikan Day Cruises

Explore the gor­geous, dynam­ic scenery and wildlife around Ketchikan by get­ting out on the water in a low-impact Zodi­ac — an authen­ti­cal­ly Alaskan way to trav­el! Every expe­di­tion is dif­fer­ent as there’s flex­i­bil­i­ty for some spon­tane­ity. You can spend extra time in a place if there’s a mag­i­cal, Nation­al Geo­graph­ic-type moment happening!

Step aboard a lux­u­ry char­ter boat in Ketchikan for an unfor­get­table small-group wildlife adven­ture. Cruise the rain­for­est coast­line in search of whales, sea lions, por­pois­es, and bald eagles — plus enjoy an up-close eagle-feed­ing expe­ri­ence. On the extend­ed tour, savor local­ly sourced snacks in a scenic cove and explore fas­ci­nat­ing inter­tidal life. Per­fect for fam­i­lies, pho­tog­ra­phers, and nature lovers seek­ing an authen­tic Alaskan experience.   ...more

Board a rigid-hull inflat­able boat for a 20-minute ride out to a seclud­ed island. Weave through a series of small islands with mas­sive cliffs that rise hun­dreds of feet out of the ocean, check out active bald eagle nests and look for sea lions and seabird rook­eries along the way. Once at the island, you’ll climb out on the beach, break out into small­er groups, and set off on a stun­ning hike on a board­walk that snakes through the rainforest.  ...more
