John was our guide and did a superb job as he led 6 women and myself on an amazing trip around several islands pointing out the various wildlife, relating the history of Kodiak, and showing us hidden bunkers on a small island. When we weren’t ready to quit paddling after a couple of hours, neither was he, and we continued around another island. It was a great experience for all of us.

It was a FANTASTIC day on the water! Hal is a wonderful guide - laidback and knowledgeable. Our niece and her friend were novices, but he was very patient with them. We had a fairly large, fun group (8 guests and Hal), but we did a big circuit of some of the smaller islands. We would TOTALLY do this again!

We booked a private tour with Maya in a remote spot in Chiniak, south of Kodiak City. It was fabulous. We met Maya and discussed what we were interested in seeing. She had everything ready for us. The bay conditions were calm and we saw the islands, bird colonies, and otters. We worked with the tides and had the wind to our back on our return. A real highlight of our trip to Alaska. Highly recommend it.

This was a fantastic half-day tour with plenty of sea otter, seal, porpoise, puffin, tern and gull sightings (our pics are no better than those already submitted). We even had a salmonberry snack upon return from the bushes at the kayak launching area. Danica was an excellent, knowledgeable guide who provided plenty of Kodiak recommendations that were spot-on. Kayaking was done at a leisurely pace that even a novice, in their 60’s couple could handle. Highly recommend!

What an excellent trip - I book my family and extended family for an afternoon trip in Chiniak. They all had a wonderful time and the guide (Mia) showed them a fabulous paddle and filled them with great information. This is a must for any travelers to Kodiak. Birds, seals, otters, etc.. Wow! a must for anyone who want a once in a lifetime experience!!

This was a wonderful experience. Our guides, Hal and Steve, are very knowledgeable about kayaking and the local environment. They had the kayaks all set up and ready for launching when we arrived. They also arranged incredible weather for us as well. The double kayaks are very comfortable and stable. We launched from Trident Basin (sea plane docks) and paddled around Popov Island. We saw numerous otters, some seals, and a variety of birds including gulls, terns, and eagles. We are experienced (Kodiak) kayakers revisiting the island after a long absence, and this was a great re-introduction to the water and wildlife. Wear or borrow boots (Xtra-tuffs are perfect) or expect to get your feet wet. Take your own water, snacks are optional. They will make a stop on a beach somewhere for a rustic rest stop. We had a stone skipping contest and Steve won with a discus-sized rock. Kayaking Kodiak is a great Alaskan experience that should not be missed.

Beautiful kayak around the eastern tip of the island. The guide had a lot of interesting current and historical info of the area and could identify all the critters we saw (which helped me a lot!), and the sea planes were pretty cool. A GREAT way to see the beauty of the island!

We booked this at the last minute and I am so happy that we did! John was a fantastic tour guide! He did a great job and was very knowledgeable about the wildlife. My husband and I really enjoyed talking to him, as did my 8 year old son. It is truly an experience we will never forget. Highly recommend!

Our tour guide Hal was amazing!! The views were spectacular. For the price, you absolutely cannot beat the experience. We beached twice and got to stop to take photos and enjoy the view. It was an incredible experience and I would definitely kayak with Kayak Kodiak again in the future.

Our Guide Hal was great! Very laid back. I love it when the guide is a local and knows so much info! We talked constantly about just about everything Kodiak and Sea life.
So many puffins!!! swarms. Hal said that was unusual to see so many.
Great relaxing time.
We took a stop on an island, walked around.
Overall fun time.

I’m in Kodiak visiting family and was wondering if you had any availability on Wednesday or Thursday (11 or 12). It’s for me, my husband and my daughter who is 27. Also, what are your rates

Hi, I am going to be in Kodiak in late July and I am hoping to take the Sea Islands Kayak Tour on the 29th. I was wondering if you provide transportation to the tour site?

Good Morning,
What is the name of the company you kayaked with? We are coming to Kodiak in July for the bear-viewing but will have some free time for kayaking. What is the cost? Thank you.

Kayak Kodiak 907-512-5112 You will love Jennifer! She's very knowledgeable and safety conscious! I believe it is around $75 per person? Another person charged a lot more than that and I felt like she endangered the wildlife. I would definitely choose Kayak Kodiak! (We have been moving and I just saw this. Sorry for the delayed response!)
