Kayak in Resurrection Bay and take a walk through the rainforest to the beautiful Bridal Veil Falls!
Bridal Veil Falls is a excellent trip for anyone wanting to get more out of their day in Resurrection Bay!
Your day begins when you meet your Adventure Sixty North guide at our shop who will ensure you’re fully outfitted and prepared for your adventure! We’ll then load into our vans and drive through historic Seward to Lowell Point Beach, providing your first glimpse of the bay. Upon arrival at the beach, your guide will conduct a safety briefing and help you familiarize yourself with your gear before we set out on the water.
Our guides will lead you on a memorable journey, sharing their extensive knowledge of the area, including local flora and fauna, geology, glaciology, glaciation, the history of Seward, and its diverse wildlife! We will paddle to Bridal Veil Falls Beach, where you’ll disembark for a short hike to the stunning 100-foot waterfall. Enjoy a provided lunch on the beach, all while taking in the breathtaking view of Godwin Glacier in the Chugach Mountain range!
-
- This trip’s time duration is 5-6hrs. This is a door-to-door time frame. Total paddling time is on average 3.5 – 4hrs over about 4 miles (there and back).
- What if it’s raining? – Seward is in a temperate rainforest, so assume it will be raining! All our trips run rain or shine. We do supply full rain gear for all of them.
- Is there any wildlife viewing? – In early May we sometimes get sightings of humpback, fin or killer whales that will typically leave by the end of September. We have plenty of up-close sightings of bald eagles, harbor seals, sea otters, stellar sea lions, harbor porpoise and lots of sea birds! In August you can even see salmon running up Tonsina Creek!
- How many people are on the trips? – We keep a ratio of 1:6 for all our kayaking trips. This does not mean every trip will have this ratio, but it will not exceed this amount. This is a group activity; we will move as fast as our slowest kayakers. Don’t want to join a group kayak trip? Check out our private trip options!
- What kind of kayaks? – All of our guests are in tandem sea kayaks; we do not offer single kayaks for our group trips.
