About this experience
I (Captain Matt) along with my crew member take our guests out for an incredible experience on the waters in and around Sitka Sound viewing the breathtaking scenery and enjoying diverse wildlife encounters! You may see many if not all of the following wildlife, Humpback whales, Sea Lions, Sea Otters, Harbor Seals, Ravens, Bald eagles, shearwaters, cormorants, 2 types of puffins, and many other sea birds too numerous to mention. Bears are regularly viewed in the late summer early fall, and occasionally viewed in the spring. As I have had a long career commercial fishing in Southeast Alaska, I give unique insight into the local fishing industry. Both my crew and I will also enlighten you on local history and life in Sitka. To ensure your experience is genuine, my crew is always either one of my family, or a local hire that truly knows Sitka. We live it year round!!
Traveler Takeaways
Summarized from guest feedback
- Guests usually respond best to clear guiding and a well-organized overall flow.
- Views and scenery are a major part of the appeal, so weather and visibility can noticeably shape the experience.
- Guide storytelling often matters as much as the stops themselves, especially for first-time visitors.
- This tends to work well for mixed-age groups when you want something easier to follow than a nightlife-heavy plan.
