5.00Kayaking with Cody was a highlight of our trip! Not only is Cody, his mom and step-dad some of the nicest people we met while in Alaska, but the personalized experience was wonderful! Cody takes you out kayaking while his mom takes spectacular photos of you and the scenery from the safety boat while also looking for wildlife for us to find! We learned so much about Hoonah (Icy Straigh Point) and saw a sea lion, so many eagles, held a crab and even a octopus! We missed the whales by about an hour but thats okay! I absolutely recommend this experience for all who visit Hoonah!
Amazing trip

5.00What a fantastic experience with Fairweather Kayaks. I was so very fortunate as I received a one on one tour which I can’t promise for others, but even without the individualized attention this was a special experience. We arrived to meet a friendly family that went the extra mile in every way, including taking photos of us they emailed that day. Hoonah didn’t deliver a beautiful sunny morning for us, but the water was calm and the journey was peaceful. I would do this excursion 10/10 times. Icing on the cake was getting to shop at the HTA store after with great deals. Thank you Cody and Michelle!
Locals led kayak experience you should not miss!

5.00Fantastic morning in a double. The guys were flexible and fun! We saw some whales headed our direction a d ended up following them for the balance of the last hour, up close and personal. SO much fun! Guide tempered the paddle to what we were seeing and our ability. He had so many stories as we moved along. They also ran a safety boat the was close by but not intrusive. My one constructive comment would be a bit better direction to meet up. We wandered a bit before finding where we should be.
Highly recommend!
