Sitka, Alaska

Whether you're sampling fresh salmon, studying the symbolic artistry of Tlingit totem poles or taking a picture in front of the onion-domed cathedral, you'll find that Sitka has its own special beauty and charm. Once the capital of Russian America, you'll see relics from a czarist past in historic parks and museums.


Sample Shore & Land Excursions
Sitka Bike

Embark on a guided adventure to experience a Sitka seldom seen by visitors. After a short drive to Theobroma Chocolate Factory, the starting point of your adventure, gear up, receive safety instructions and begin your bike ride on a path nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the mountains.
Your ride passes Old Sitka, site of the historic battle between Tlingit Indians and the Russian Navy nearly 200 years ago, and crosses Starrigavin Creek, where, in season, you may see salmon spawning in the creek.
Arrive at Starrigavin Campground, the starting point of your approximate 1.5 mile hike.
Walk through the old growth forest as the naturalist-guide shares information about local Native lore, history, flora and fauna.
Completing the loop trail, reboard your bike for the ride back to the Theobroma Chocolate Factory, your final stop before a relaxing return drive to the cruise ship pier.

Sea Life Discovery Semi-Submersible

Immerse yourself in the hidden world beneath Alaskan seas and experience life beneath the waves like you have never seen it before.
Glide through eel grass beds, drift through kelp forests and explore rocky shoals in heated comfort aboard Alaska's only semi-submersible tour vessel.
You will discover that the cold waters of Alaska teem with life, including jellyfish, anemones, crab, fish, starfish, and a variety of aquatic plants, thanks to long hours of summer daylight and the nutrient-rich currents of the North Pacific.
Large, underwater viewing windows allow you to encounter the underwater world up close while the naturalist's narration enhances the experience.
Onboard monitors and a scuba diver using underwater video reveal even more of the world beneath the sea, while an open-top aquarium brings sea creatures on board the vessel.
Your tour will conclude above deck with refreshments, including cookies topped with kelp marmalade.

Sitka Sportfishing

Sitka Sound and its adjacent waters are teeming with a wide variety of fish, dramatic views and wildlife. Board a fully equipped fishing vessel and your experienced captain will guide you to favorite spots for salmon fishing.
If you wish, your catch can be prepared locally (flash frozen or smoked) and shipped to your home for an additional charge (US addresses only) payable at the conclusion of your tour.
Credit card payment is required. We regret that fish cannot be stored on board the ship. Deck or rubber soled shoes must be worn on the boat.
Bring appropriate outdoor clothing. Alaska State Law requires a valid one-day fishing license, which may be purchased for $10 from your fishing boat captain.
During the King Salmon season, an additional $10 King Salmon stamp is also required.
Please note that once sport fishing participation figures have been sent to the operator (minimum of 24 hours before arrival) no refunds will be granted in cases where guests decide not to utilize the service for whatever reason. No guarantees are made with respect to catching any fish.
