• 5Best Experience Of My Life!

  This was one of the best experiences of my life! That sentiment is shared by my husband and friend that were with me. Rick, the owner and guide was extremely knowledgeable and took extra care to make sure our tour exceeded our expectations. We saw so many whales, sea otters and seals! I 100% recommend Coastal Tours Sitka!

• 5Best Whale Watching experience ever!

  Captain Rick is a fantastic tour guide. We saw at least a dozen whales surface and dive multiple times close enough to the boat to see the whole whale.

• 5This was the best...

  This was the best experience ever!!! We saw more than 20 whales and Rick took us to just the right place where we saw a mama bear and 2 cubs. He is very, very knowledgeable and we all learned a lot from him. I will recommend him to all my clients and friends going to Sitka!

• 5Perfect excursion for couples wanting to see humpbacks!

  Rick is the Bomb. Great host, very friendly, and got us up and personal with the Alaskan wildlife. Highly recommend this to couples or small families. Really feels like a private VIP tour.

• 5THE BEST TOUR!!!

  I cannot recommend Rick enough! From the information given over the phone to the directions to the pick up point to the information given during the tour .....and just the tour itself.....everything was perfect! Rick is a super nice guy with a very comfortable, spotless boat and he took us on the BEST tour! We saw too many whales to count....it was incredible! Having grown up in Sitka, he knew exactly where to take us where we wouldn't be surrounded by 100 other boats, but put us right in the middle of so many whales! We saw sea lions before even leaving the harbor, whales, puffins, bald eagles, cormorants, a volcano, a gorgeous island, starfish, eagle nests, salmon jumping and a momma bear feeding salmon to her 3 baby cubs. His knowledge of the area, the animals, their feeding patterns, the fishing boats and fishing processes was so educational. Plus, the boat was warm when it got chilly and he was even thoughtful enough to provide snacks and waters for our trip. You won't go wrong choosing this tour. We can't thank him enough for a truly an incredible day! Thanks again for taking us on such a great trip Rick! We can't wait to come back and do it again! ~Alicia

About Sitka

Sitka is a small island town on Alaska's Pacific coast, once the capital of Russian America, with onion domes, totem poles and a sound ringed by mountains.

Sitka sits on the west coast of Baranof Island in south-east Alaska, facing the Pacific across a sound dotted with islands and overlooked by the volcanic cone of Mount Edgecumbe. It was the capital of Russian America, known as New Archangel, and in 1867 Alaska was formally transferred from Russia to the United States on Castle Hill. The onion-domed St Michael's Cathedral and the Russian Bishop's House, built in 1842, recall that past.
