Dave led four of us on a day long trip into Blackstone Bay. We loved spending the day visiting the four glaciers deep in Blackstone Bay and learning about the wildlife. Alaska Sea Kayakers outfitted us so that we were completely warm and dry. Dave had a genuine enthusiasm for nature and was a very engaging guide. We loved his stories about the wildlife and the changes in the glaciers. It was a we'll spent day.

Sights were breathtaking!! This was an awesome three hour kayak tour. Our guides were Anthony and David and they did an amazing job. My husband and I had a little more experience than some others in our group, so they allowed us to split up each taking a group and we were able to go further on the journey because of our experience. The guides knowledge of the area and friendly demeanor made this excursion an absolute joy. Our camera died, and Anthony used his personal camera to take a few pics for us so that we would have them!! Top notch service from this company.

We kayaked on a very damp, chilly day, but it was still one of the highlights of our Alaska vacation. If you're anywhere near Whittier, this is a trip that is worth making. The tunnel to Whittier is a cool experience, and the tiny town sits on a beautiful harbor surrounded by mountains. We did the day-long Blackstone Bay trip and it was incredible - seeing so many glaciers from the water is just amazing and the guides (Anthony and Kevin) were nice, fun, and helpful. Alaska Sea Kayakers outfitted us to be dry and fairly warm all day. The trip also included a pretty nice picnic lunch and a short rock scramble to see the base of a receding glacier that I am glad we did even though it was at the end of a long day. Very cool!

We had an incredible experience seakayaking in Blackstone Bay with our guides Kevin and Colton! We lucked out and the weather was beautiful!! We kayaked about 12 miles in all that day with an hour break for a yummy lunch (which was provided for us). The glaciers are magnificent and the scenery is gorgeous! We saw seals along the way as well. Our guides went out of their way to make sure we had a safe and fun trip! We highly recommend this adventure—it was well worth the money.

We had a great Blackstone Bay kayak tour! Pete was very helpful in planning and was able to connect us with another couple to meet the trip minimum of 4.
They provided all the rain gear that you could possibly need (boots, jackets, pants). While it didn't rain as predicted, I was happy that we were prepared just in case.
I had originally looked at booking one of the boat tours in the area and am so glad that we decided to kayak. The view of Blackstone Bay and the glacier was beautiful and it was incredible to hear the glacier calving. The views / wildlife seemed much more intimate and closer being in a kayak versus being in a boat.
Lunch was a perfect break and we loved the hike at the end. I was a little worried that the day would be too long, but it went by so quickly and we really weren't very tired at the end.
Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!
