    Can't say thank you enough to Seth for a fabulous tour around Icy Straight! The small tour format was perfect for us, the boat extremely comfortable, and Seth was able to help us find/see as much wildlife possible... eagle, bear, humpback, orcas, otters and sea lions. He made sure we had multiple opportunities for "tail shots". It was the perfect tour!!

    Seth made our Vivid Endeavors wildlife excursion truly remarkable from start to finish! He promptly met us at the pickup location, his boat was immaculate and set up for easy indoor and outdoor viewing, he educated us on Icy Strait Point (the history, wildlife…and his story about moving to Alaska) and was in communication with other boats to make sure we saw as much as possible on our trip. We saw coastal brown bears catching salmon on the shore/inlet, sea otters and lots of whales. Since we were into photography, he positioned the boat so we would have the best viewing angles. If you want to leave the crowds behind, book him now…you’ll be happy you did! Cathy & Les

    Seth at vivid encounters provided us with a fantastic excursion. It was our first in Alaska and put all the others to shame. Of course, there is no guarantee of what you will see since it is not a zoo, but Seth was in constant communication with other local guides to ensure that we saw everything possible. We saw humpback whales bubble net feeding which was AMAZING! We also saw orcas, harbor seals, otters, eagles and bears... Oh my! This is a must do excursion!

    Icy Strait

    Icy Strait is a legendary body of water that connects the protected inside waters of Southeast Alaska to the open Pacific Ocean. The nutrient rich waters of Southeast Alaska make it one of the most productive ecosystems in the world. During the summer months, these abundant fjords become the ideal home and feeding ground for a large population of Humpback Whales. Humpbacks travel to the area every year after their winter breeding season in the warmer waters of Hawaii and Mexico. After navigating over 3000 miles, we often see the same individual humpbacks return to Icy Strait year after year. Humpbacks aren’t the only wildlife in the area. Our trips often encounter Sea Lions, Seals, Porpoise, Sea Otters, Bald Eagles, Coastal Brown Bears along the shoreline, & our favorite – the awe inspiring Orca better known as the Killer Whale.
