A word from Pierre

This base specialises in small group excursions that allow you to explore the outer coast and Baranof Island like a local. Their boat offers the best platform for whale watching, wildlife, photography and shore excursions in the Sitka area, for those looking for a unique adventure and in-depth local knowledge.

Excursions include many whale and wildlife sightings, as well as plenty of photo opportunities. You'll see whales, otters, sea lions, eagles, seabirds, the occasional Sitka black-tailed deer, brown bears and much more. Whale activity peaks during the herring season in March and April.

The Shelltone Whale Project's cetacean-watching charter is fully respected.
