Alaska Lake Kayaking

Grab a pad­dle and set off in a kayak across the glac­i­er-fed turquoise waters of Eklut­na Lake with expe­ri­enced tour com­pa­ny Life­time Adven­tures. You’ll have the option of rent­ing a kayak or enjoy­ing a guid­ed tour around the lake in a sin­gle or dou­ble kayak — no expe­ri­ence nec­es­sary! Com­bi­na­tion tours that include bik­ing or hik­ing are also available.

Based in Haines, SEAK Expe­di­tions offers immer­sive, small-group day tours by kayak, bike, and pack­raft, all led by pas­sion­ate locals. Tours include the Chilkoot Lake Kayak, Bike & Kayak Tour, Day on the Fjord sea kayak­ing, and Kle­hi­ni Riv­er Pack­raft­ing. Small groups allow lead­ers to cus­tomize tours to trav­el­ers’ inter­ests, whether that’s geol­o­gy, his­to­ry, pho­tog­ra­phy, or wildlife.

Seward Adven­ture Park is an all-in-one out­door activ­i­ty cen­ter sur­round­ed by the moun­tains of Res­ur­rec­tion Bay. Try the aer­i­al ropes course up to 45 feet high, bike grav­el trails through alder forests, kayak on Preacher’s Pond, or try zorb­ing across the water. You can also enjoy axe throw­ing and archery tag. Book a sin­gle activ­i­ty or opt for a half- or full-day pass to try everything.
