Join us on an extraordinary expedition filled with thrilling wildlife encounters, stunning scenery, delicious dining and world class kayaking in Southeast Alaska.

TRIP OVERVIEW

A kayak mothership expedition with SEAK Expeditions combines wilderness sea kayaking in remote Alaskan fjords with the comfort, safety, and mobility of a motorized support vessel. Instead of paddling packed kayaks between cold beach campsites, you explore glacier-carved waterways by day and return to warm meals, hot showers, and private berths each evening.

TRIP HIGHLIGHTS

Glacier Navigation: Paddle alongside tidewater glaciers in iconic areas like Glacier Bay, Tracy Arm, or Endicott Arm, weaving past icebergs and listening to calving ice.

Wildlife Encounters: Close-up views of humpback whales bubble-net feeding, orcas, sea otters, harbor seals resting on ice floes, and coastal brown bears foraging along the shoreline.

Expansive Reach: Cover significantly more ground than standard kayak trips by letting the mothership navigate open water crossings and long distances overnight or during meals.

Warm Wilderness Luxury: End cold paddling sessions with heated staterooms, gourmet meals prepared by an onboard chef, and drying lockers for gear.

High Quality Equipment : Options for performance kayaks and top of the line kayaking equipment i.e. carbon fiber paddles, low volume pfds, drysuits etc….
