Ocean Raft Adventure

Rafting Adventure: Your Alaska-sized adventure begins right from the Icy Strait Point dock and takes you through the waters of Port Frederick and Icy Strait. Your captain will select a route that works best with the day’s weather and opportunities for wildlife viewing. The area’s nutrient-dense waters make it a prime location to spot humpback whales, orcas, seals, sea otters, and sea lions. Wildlife sightings are not guaranteed but likely. Make sure to bring your camera as your captain will expertly position the vessel for up-close views of tidal flats and point out wildlife that may be spotted along the coastline. Learn about the local history, the reasons why the waterways are important to the Tlingit people and the ocean’s continued benefit to their subsistence lifestyle.
