smd247 Posted April 10, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I've never kayaked before but what better place to start[emoji3]. We will be in Juneau, Haines, Icy Straight and Ketchican in May. Any advise on which ports and which companies are best for kayaking would be greatly appreciated.

Kesstral Posted April 11, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I can't speak for the other ports but I used Southeast Seas Kayak (http://www.kayakketchikan.com) on my last Alaska cruise in 2014 and had a great time instead of booking a different company through the ship. My husband and I never kayaked before and it went really well. We did luck out with some amazing weather and no one else booked on our tour (their groups are may 8 or 6 depending on the tour). We are going back next month and I've booked the same tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second this recommendation. We did their Orcas Cove tour last July. We had 5 in our group, so ended up with a private tour. We had a fabulous time! The cruise was a graduation trip for my youngest, so this was a special day for my kids and me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawagama Posted April 11, 2018 #4 Share Posted April 11, 2018 We went with Southeast as well in 2016. While it did start to rain during our tour, we still enjoyed it and were the only two on the tour (early May)! They were very gracious and I would recommend them.

JT1962 Posted April 14, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 14, 2018 We used Southeast Kayaks in Ketchikan last May and were happy as well. We still had time afterwards to see Creek Street, the fish Ladder and do some shopping. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
