Day wise Itinerary

• Day 1 :

  Meet at the shop in Valdez, Alaska at around 9:00 a.m. for an introductory lesson on sea kayaking. From there we go down to the charter boat and meet the captain and cook. Once aboard the yacht the captain will assign each person or couple their private birth and introduce everyone to the features and comforts available aboard the sailing craft. The vessel will depart from the dock around noon. The first afternoon is spent at Shoup Glacier State Park. We get into the kayaks and paddle up a pretty fjord to where a glacier comes down to the water. There are also great hiking opportunities here. Returning to the charter boat we can relax on deck for the cruise to our night's anchor in Sawmill Bay.

• Day 2 :

  Wake up to a hot breakfast and a scenic cruise to Glacier Island for a paddle with the sea lions. Enjoy a picnic lunch while keeping your eyes on watch for Humpback and Orca Whales.
