An absolutely amazing experience for our family. Captain Chris was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He also could crack some jokes too. If there was a way to give him more than 5 stars I would. He was able to show us some wonderful wildlife and some truly beautiful spots in Sitka. Next trip to Sitka we will be calling on Capt. Chris again for sure!

The Fishing, Wildlife viewing, and Sunset Cruise was absolutely awesome and amazing! Couldn’t ask for a better Captain! He literally went out of his way to show us the best time, ever!!! We only planned to do one excursion but after the fishing charter, we wanted to do the wildlife excursion with the same Captain! He was so personable, fun, and showed us the best wildlife viewing spots! Then, we did the sunset cruise and that was phenomenal too! A total trip of a lifetime!! Highly recommend!!
