Sea
Kayaking on the Kenai in Alaska
 |
Home
to world famous salmon runs and the source of the Kenai River,
Kenai Lake is the emerald heart of Alaska's Kenai Peninsula.
Over 25 miles long, and with miles of Forested wilderness
shoreline, it is an ideal location for paddle touring in sea
kayaks. Our Kayak tours are perfect for paddlers wishing to
participate in the sport of sea kayaking without the risk
of ocean swells and title currents. Our guides provide instruction
on paddling techniques and safety at the start of each tour. |
Quartz Creek Half-Day Tour
This 3-hour sea kayak tour begins with basic instruction on paddling
techniques and safety. We'll explore the shoreline of Kenai Lake
