Ketchikan - Prince of Whales Custom Bear Tour

It is our pleasure to offer the ultimate Bear Viewing experience throughout this amazing Coastal Habitat!

Your Photo-Expedition starts as you depart the Ketchikan harbor by seaplane into the Misty Fjords. During this scenic flight your Pilot/Guide will prepare you for your adventure. As you listen keep your eyes peeled, for marine mammals that migrate through the area. It is possible to see whales, sea lions and porpoise.

You will be flying to a quiet watershed where bears are digging for clams, grazing on shore grasses and seasonally fishing for spawning salmon. These spawning salmon serve as a summer staple for all Alaskan mammals.

Though Bears are our main objective it is not uncommon to see deer, eagles, kingfishers and maybe even a wolf.

Your plane will be landing on the water, guests will disembark the plane and step onto the floats. Your Pilot/Guide will share his knowledge of bear habitat and point out any signs of bear. For photos, he will position your floatplane quietly along side wildlife, with the breathtaking backdrop of the Misty Fjords!
