Overview

You select your start-time, any time between: 8:00am - 2:00pm.
3 hours are included, however you can shorten or extend your private tour as needed.

Your tour guide, a Merchant Marine Captain with over 30-years on the water will tour you around Sitka Sound, around the Saint Lazaria Islands and Mt. Edgecumbe - our local volcano.

We are located out of Sitka on the western side of Baranof Island, in beautiful Southeast Alaska. We are owned and operated by a year-round resident and adventure outfitter. He states, “There's no place I'd rather be or explore than Southeast Alaska. Here we have the bounty of the Pacific Ocean at our doorstep with over 18,000 miles of coastline encompassing the Tongass National Forest, the largest temperate rain forest in the northern hemisphere. Our mission is to provide our guests with the greatest sea and coastal adventures out there, while providing an element of added safety as we explore one of the most beautiful places on the edges of the earth.”

Activity itinerary

Sitka (Pass by)

Outer Coast Charters provides private, small group scenic and wildlife boat tours. Our custom adventures all benefit from the comfort and safety of our Suzy-Q Stabicraft. Built in New Zealand, Suzy-Q is a double-hulled aluminum Stabicraft 2500 Ultracab XL safety boat. Every tour is custom designed depending on the weather and seas, and where wildlife might best be seen each day. If seas allow it, we will travel to the Saint Lazaira Islands. Alternatively, we will cruise Sitka Sound and its endless array of islands and coves to provide your party with the best adventure possible. Your private charter will focus on the best locations for scenic and wildlife and photography which may include: Humpback Whales, Sea Otters, Sea Lions, Dolphins, Harbor seals seals Seals, Orcas, Eagles, Puffins, assorted Seabirds, as well as amazing Volcano, Mountain and Ocean Views.

Saint Lazaria Islands (Pass by)

If seas allow, we will travel to the Saint Lazaira Islands. St. Lazaria Island is a nesting bird colony located twenty miles (32 km) west of Sitka, Alaska and is a part of the Gulf of Alaska unit of the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge. It was originally designated as a "refuge for seabirds" in 1909 and received official Wilderness Designation from congress in 1970. It was added to the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge in 1980. The main island is thought to be the remnants of a now eroded volcano; a "volcanic plug" whose cliffs are home to more than half 1 million various species of sea birds.
