- Private Transportation from the downtown Cruise Docks & the new dock at Ward Cove.

The tour guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about the area and the wildlife. They provided all the gear and really simple instructions, we were very comfortable on the water. It’s so quiet and peaceful floating. A great experience.

I was nervous to go out on the ocean but the water was so much calmer there then downtown and the kayak was really stable. The gear provided kept me warm and comfortable. Watching the seals was fun and we saw whales spouting and their tales as they dove. So magical!
