Explore Sitka’s wild coast on small-group tours with a trained naturalist from Sitka Wonders. Choose from a unique 4-hour wildlife cruise with a beach landing, a 2.5-hour wildlife cruise, or a full day private charter. Look for whales, sea otters, puffins, bears, eagles, and intertidal life, and get access to remote volcanic islands that standard tours rarely visit.
The Tours
- Islands of Wonder. This 4-hour trip takes up to 6 people and gets you away from the crowds to explore Sitka’s wild coast, where you’ll find remote islands and explore a remote beach. Look for whales, sea otters, bears, sea lions, and seabirds as you follow the weather and tide. Then stop at a beach for a snack and a short walk through driftwood and tidepools.
- Wild Coast Exploration. This 2.5-hour, small-group wildlife journey sails into Sitka Sound with a trained naturalist to look for whales, otters, sea lions, and seabirds. The area’s unique geography—where the North Pacific meets the Gulf of Alaska—attracts marine wildlife en masse. You’ll be looking out for it in a 6-passenger boat with an outdoor viewing deck, panoramic windows, and a warm, enclosed cabin
