Inside Passage Sea Kayaking in Haines
4 h
About this activity
At the start of your tour you will be greeted by your professional kayak guide for an ocean kayaking trip of a lifetime.
Your 2-person kayaks will be set up on the beach, a short 5-minute walk from the pier. We’ll choose from a variety of ocean paddles depending on sea conditions and weather.
Your guides will outfit you with a PFD (personal flotation device), spray skirt & poncho, if needed. After a safety briefing and equipment introduction/fitting, you are off and paddling.
You will be on the water for 2-3 hours. Once off the water, stay on the beach to enjoy a waterside picnic-style lunch. (Allergies & meal preferences can be accommodated).
In an instance where ocean conditions aren’t suitable we’ll head to our backup location on Chilkoot Lake which is a 30-minute van ride along the Chilkoot River. This backup location is surrounded by mountains with alpine waterfalls and salmon spawning beds.
Tour Timing:
12:00- Meet on pier, complete waivers and answer any questions
12:00 - 00:15 - Short walk to beach adjacent to fast ferry dock where your 2-person kayaks will be waiting (1/3 km)
12:15 - 12:30 - Kayak orientation, safety briefing and equipment fitting
12:30 - 3:30 - 2-3 hours of paddling based on conditions and group preference
03:30 - 3:50 - Beachside picnic lunch
