Located on Alaska’s south coast lies Prince William Sound, a dreamy place teeming with glaciers cascading into the ocean, abundant wildlife, and surreal Alaskan vistas. The sea here is so glassy that it looks like a giant mirror, meaning it’s ideal for a sea kayaking adventure. Dip your paddle into the water and slice through the ocean as your guide takes you from the Meares Glacier to Columbia Bay. Listen to the sounds of air releasing from icebergs of all sizes, animals calling to their young, and whales making their bellowing calls which echo down valleys. You’ll explore secret tidal passageways, paddle up tidal rivers, explore glacial faces, and marvel at the wealth of wildlife. Camp in hidden coves like the ones from Lord of the Rings and indulge in freshly prepared meals to regain your energy. Discover the moss-lined coastline and lush rainforests as you let your guide take you through this massive Alaskan wilderness.
