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!

Book it! Hands down the best part of our visit to Sitka! Capt. Gary was knowledgeable and lots of fun. A true top-notch operation! We were happy to support local highly, highly recommend Sitka Adventures!
Local knowledge, small group. Did the combo whale watching and land tour.Communication with Capt Gary was excellent. The boat was very comfortable, snacks appreciated, and the group is small.
We did see whales which was very exciting but keep your expectations realistic, as Capt said. Local knowledge and access are important.
We thought the land portion was good but we’re disappointed to find out that afternoon that we weren’t going to the raptor center, as that was the main interest.
Having just been to see bears at the AWCC we thought the Fortress setting was less appealing but you definitely will see bears.
Whale watching with Capt. Gary Captain Gary is awesome! Leading up to our excursion, he kept us well informed of what we could expect. His boat is very comfortable with great sightlines throughout. Gary’s knowledge of Sitka and surrounding areas are second to none. He went above and beyond in his quest to find whales, seals and other wildlife. Gary and other boat captains share whale sightings over the radio in real time to know the areas to explore. Highly recommended!
