Unfortunately, the Pictures/Website are misleading with several pictures of Whales closer and even Breaching. We were in shallow water most of the time and nowhere near where Whales would even go (this is the main reason we chose this excursion). Yes we were along the River most of the time and where wildlife could have appeared. We suspect things have changed bc of a bad experience with a Whale Breaching too close to Kayakers at least once in the past. It was fun but I wish they'd remove the misleading Whale Pictures.

We LOVED our kayaking tour with Dave. It was by far our favorite experience in all of Alaska. Everyone was so kind and they provided us with all the gear we needed to be comfortable and warm, as well as waterproof phone cases so we could take pictures/videos. We enjoyed chatting with Dave and hearing all his great stories, as well as learning about Hoonah and the wildlife. The scenery alone was incredible and we felt so grateful to be in this beautiful, peaceful place. We were lucky enough to see bears, deer, bald eagles, and whales - but this was really just the cherry on top of an already amazing kayaking tour. We also loved that the kayak had a rudder, it really made it so much easier to steer. After the tour, they even sent us photographs that they had taken of us during the tour! Seriously the best experience and I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone visiting Icy Strait/Hoonah! I just hope we can go back and do it again some day. Thank you Dave for giving us the best day kayaking we've ever had!
