Hello

Thanks for stopping by!

We’re local guides who absolutely love Sitka - our hometown / home waters - and have a passion for sharing it.

We invite you to come explore with us and discover the untamed beauty, abundant wildlife and story of Baranof Island and Sitka Sound.

It’s a place that’s wildly beautiful, teeming with life, and historically and culturally rich. A place we call home.

We feel lucky to live, work and play here and we’d love to share the adventure with you.

Read on to learn more about us, the tours we offer and how we can make Sitka the favorite port of your Alaskan vacation.

See you at the dock!

Gary & Koali + Nico

5 star ratingUgh, too many whales But seriously, put this tour at the top of your list in Sitka. Captain Gary and Caitlin were excellent- knowledgeable, professional, hospitable, and friendly. Capt Gary knew exactly where to go to see the whales, otters, seals, sea lions, etc. We even contributed to scientific research that identifies and tracks whales. Caitlin shared her wonderful photos with passengers at the end via Airdrop. It was so fun to hear their stories and knowledge of the animals and the area. The tour boat,“Morning Glory,”was comfortable and smooth with indoor/outdoor viewing options, a heater indoors, snacks/drinks, and a small bathroom. Can’t say enough great things about Captain Gary’s Sitka Adventures- Thank you for the fantastic experience!
