The Top 1 Kayak Tours in Skagway

There are few better ways to explore the gorgeous waters around Haines and Skagway than on a Skagway kayak tour. This part of Alaska is particularly stunning, and kayaks allow you to zip around, pulling up close to anything that takes your interest, in a way that larger boats aren’t able to. And because kayaks are non-motorized, there are no noisy engines to drown out the sounds of nature!

One of the most popular kayak tours in Skagway is the Inside Passage Kayak excursion. After taking the fast ferry from Skagway south to the small city of Haines, you’ll launch your tandem kayak and head off on an adventure exploring the 90-mile-long Lynn Canal. This waterway is famously teeming with wildlife, from sea lions and porpoises to humpback whales. You might also see bears foraging along the shoreline, and bald eagles hovering in the air scoping for prey. Your tour guide is a regional expert, and will regale you with interesting facts and explain everything you see - they’re super friendly, so feel free to ask any questions. Then, after a private beach picnic, it’s back on the fast ferry to be reunited with your cruise ship. By the end of this tour, you’re sure to be happy - and also completely worn out!

Joining a Skagway kayak tour really couldn’t be easier. Book your tour today with instant confirmation and you can begin to count down the days until your wonderful Alaskan adventure!
