Our Sunset Glass Kayak Tour begins during daylight at a local launch site. You’ll paddle up the peaceful Whitefish River and, after about a mile, arrive at Whitefish Lake just as the sun begins to set. As daylight fades, the kayaks’ LED lights illuminate the water, creating a truly unique and unforgettable experience. Whether you’re looking for a fun outing with friends or a romantic evening under the stars, this tour offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. Escape the ordinary and embrace Montana’s wilderness during this stunning transition from day to night. With limited evening activities in the Flathead Valley, our Sunset Tours provide a unique way to connect with nature. Please note: Due to restrictions, we are limited to only 4 kayaks. All kayaks are tandem, we highly encourage that your party has an even number of participants.

Our guide Garyson was exceptional! This was one of the best nights of our vacation yet! The sunset was spectacular and it was so peaceful just being out in the water taking a moment to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Would definitely recommend to other people who are in the area!
