Alaska Coastal Explorer offers saltwater charter fishing, for halibut, king salmon, and silver salmon from Seward, Alaska.

Kayaking Custom Tours
We offer eco-tours and extreme adventures for those who would like an extended outing well off the beaten path. We provide the sea kayaks with instructors and take you to remote areas along the Gulf Coast or into Prince William Sound. You have the options of camping on the beach, or sleeping aboard the well appointed vessel Hope. The areas we will explore are outside the range of local ‘water taxis’, so our trips are not offered as a drop off service.

The idea is to offer choices with varying levels of difficulty, from easy with fully catered hosting with an emphasis on families and relatively inexperienced individuals to ‘extreme’ multi-day kayaking, hiking and camping adventures.

These are fully custom trips. You are welcome to initiate a preferred agenda and we will coordinate the logistics, or you can use some trips we have outlined as a template for discussion of the possibilities.

Three-day-two-night Adventure:

Travel from Seward to the area we will begin sea kayaking. Arriving around noon we will begin exploring the coast or islands or glaciers in the area. The boat will be positioned as a destination relative to the afternoon’s exploration. After a day of exploring dine aboard and then go ashore to a beach fire and relaxing after the day’s exploits. Or set up camp.

In the morning after breakfast continue on with your exploration, or transit to another nearby area by boat for a change of scenery. Lunch is provided to take along. Again, the boat will be positioned to accommodate the day’s progress. The agenda will easily accommodate stops for hiking and exploring. After dinner the beach is the destination for another evening of relaxing and playing.

After breakfast in the morning you can choose whether to go hiking or spend several more hours exploring by kayak before we head back to Seward around noon.

Four-day-three-night Adventure:

Travel from Seward to a remote area to begin our adventure. Spend the afternoon kayaking and exploring calving glaciers and hanging with ice floe dwelling seals. Dine aboard after an afternoon of paddling, and then set up camp on the beach. Spend the evening listening to the thunder of ice falling off nearby glaciers.

The next morning after breakfast embark on a hearty hike up a glacier carved valley. Depending on the length of the hike, spend the afternoon paddling and exploring more of the area.

Day three we will transit to another area by boat, and put in a day of paddling and exploring. Maybe find a spot to put some lines in the water to try to catch some halibut or salmon. Dinner and another trip to the beach will round out the day’s activities.

After breakfast on day four we’ll spend several hours kayaking, hiking or fishing before we head back to Seward.
