An overview of this trip would be summed up by daily activities of sea kayaking, hiking, fishing, sightseeing, and relaxing. Enjoy the comfort of Prince William Sound Lodge with gourmet meals and "Nice Rustic" accommodations. This trip is led by one naturalist guide and hosted by the two friendly lodge owners.
This is a high end vacation that gives the best of Prince William Sound. We cut not corners and offer your group first class service with an experienced staff and well organized itinerary. This option is particularly good for a family who would like a diversity of activities and an option to participate (or not) in each. The lodge offers activities for all ages and excellent private accommodations.
