Kayak Alaska was formed by naturalists, explorers, and educators. Originally our focus was scuba diving, and we've quickly grown to be Alaska's premier dive shop. Now, driven by a desire to share our pristine wilderness with non-divers, we've expanded to accommodate explorers of all kinds. We've recently up[graded our charter vessel to a 43 foot Delta, and our capacity has increased from 6 to 12 explorers. We strive to provide the adventure that is not available with the "big box" tours. Going out with us will be more like an adventure with family and friends than the "tourist trap" feeling of the cattle boats. Our staff are accomplished divers with experience in caves, wrecks, and deep mixed gas diving. We bring that same sense of adventure to our kayak, snorkel, and sightseeing tours. We are pleased to introduce our staff
