DESCRIPTION:
Sea kayaking adventures with Northern Lights Expeditions focus on
encountering and seeing whales, whether it is a wild killer whale
(orca), a minke, or humpback. After 20 years of operation in this
area, Northern Lights Expeditions knows the best spots on earth
to encounter orcas in the wild. Knowledgeable guides can identify
family groups and individuals and talk about the history and behavior
of the whales. They even carry underwater microphones to listen
to the whales, and photographs to help them identify individual
whales.
Northern Lights
trips include gourmet meals. This is also one of the top salmon
fishing spots on the coast, and they supplement their delicious
dinners with fresh wild salmon whenever possible. Exceptional, knowledgeable
guides, top quality kayaking and camping equipment, great support
from their staff, and help with travel plans, are fine touches that
make Northern Lights North America's most experienced sea kayaking
outfitter.
Northern Lights
has helped to set the standard for sea kayakers in this area, and
their strict adherence to wildlife encounter guidelines has helped
them consistently have whale sightings on their trips. David Arcese,
founder of Northern Lights, has a philosophy of being the best outfitter
in this specialized area. His philosophy has guided the company
to receive the highest ratings and reviews from their guests. Wildlife
is seen at very close range, but is not disturbed.
