Location
Harrigan Centennial Hall
Harbor Drive
From the cruiseship terminal, you'll hop on one of the busses that takes you downtown. They will drop you off infront of Harrigan Centennial Hall and I will meet you there. The busses are free and I do not recommend walking as the terminal is several miles from downtown.

All Around amazing experience - Our 9 year old son is a huge history buff, so this paddle and WW2 bunker exploration trip was what he was most looking forward to on our recent Alaska adventure. This excursion was all we could have hoped for- and more! From start to finish, Charlie was terrific to work with. He is incredibly knowledgable and professional yet down to earth and is the most engaging story teller!!! We truly enjoyed every minute of our time with SEAK and a grateful for the beautiful memories made in Sitka!

Very fun, unique experience. Must see/do while visiting Sitka. - "SEAK Adventure" This was such a unique experience! We had so much fun. Charlie was such a great tour guide! I have never been kayaking before, but Charlie made it easy for me (I didn't even get my feet wet and he provided rain pants as well). Once we got to the bunkers (it was a bit of a hike, lots of rocks), he took us through them with provided headlamps. He told the history of the town very well, very knowledgeable. Overall, I would do this again.

Kayaking to WW2 Bunkers - Great information about and tour of the bunkers. Fun kayaking! Good instruction and supervision on the water. Added bonus having planes take off and land right overhead and watching Coast Guard helicopter land and take off too. :-)

Altogether, it was a fun adventure. - Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the bunkers and why they were built. He provided us with waterproof pants and life vests before we left. The kayaking was about 30 minutes each way. This was fairly easy for 2 people in their 50's. The island was very easy to walk on but there was some bushwacking. Our guide helped out a lot. Altogether, it was a fun adventure.
