Within a short distance from the Port of Kodiak, clients can be near awesome humpback, gray and Minke whales. Nothing is more exciting than a breeching whale near you! Our waters are incredibly prolific, with a food chain so healthy that the numbers of birds is literally unbelievable at times. Puffins, Kittiwakes, Shearwaters, Murres and unique ocean ducks feed wildly on massive schools of baitfish. Huge Stellar Sea Lions bask on rocky outcroppings, and the ever-popular sea otters feed on a variety of sea creatures. The opportunities for photographers are here! Along with the wildlife is the unparalleled beauty of our "Emerald Island". Cruising the shorelines is a magical experience, never to be forgotten…….. guaranteed!
