Caines Head Kayak & Hike

Join us for a firsthand look at Seward, Lowell Point, and Resurrection Bay. Learn about Seward's history as we drive through town. Travel comfortably by van to our private beach, enjoying the stunning views along the way. This active adventure combines hiking and sea kayaking. Keep an eye out for wildlife and birds as we paddle along the shoreline. If time permits, we'll hike to Fort McGilvray.

This trip is a big day with a lot of activity and exploration and is best for those with experience, or first-timers wanting a very active adventure. If a more relaxed pace sounds appealing, check out our Tonsina Point Kayak & Exploration.
