Consider the four hour tour of Resurrection Bay wih your family, self, friend, or significant other. You will see mountain views, whales, mountain goats, Steller Sea Lions, thousands of ducks, otters, bald eagles, and other wild life. Check the marine forecast the day before going. More

Amazing beauty. Frigid waters, curious seals, bald eagle flybys, snowcapped mountains meet the water,fishing boats and captains wonder around the Seward community. Stop by and talk with the locals while taking in this glorious location. More
