If you'd like to do something a little different, and get away from town - but don't have the time or money for the Aialik Day Trip - then the Kayakers Cove Day Trip is a really good option. We use a water taxi for transport across the bay to a little cove on the eastern shoreline... near the Fox Island Spit. From there, you'll load up the kayaks and head out for a day of exploration! The timing for this trip varies depending on the water taxi's schedule... but it usually runs somewhere around 9am - 5pm.
Depending on tides and weather, you may either head north into Humpy Cove or across to Fox Island. Either way, the scenery is spectacular and the wildlife tends to be quite good. Land and do a short walk to a beautiful waterfall in Humpy Cove, or check out the tidepools and ghost forest on the Fox Island Spit. Marvel at the mountains jutting straight up from the ocean, and learn about the pillow basalt as you paddle past it.
Kayakers Cove Overnight Getaway: This trip can also be turned into an overnight, with a night's stay at the Kayakers Cove Hostel or their private cabins. Spend two full days exploring the coastline, enjoy a campfire or wood-fired sauna at the end of the day, meet other like-minded people staying at the hostel, and just take the time to get to know Alaska better!
