About Sunny Cove Kayaking

Why Choose Sunny Cove Kayaking? 

We've been paddling these waters since 1996...the longest of any kayaking company in Seward. Most of our guides have been with us for years and are very experienced when it comes to adventure touring in Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park.  

We're Safe, Fun and We Care about Your Guests, Their Experience, and Our Community

We are proud of our experienced staff of outdoor professionals. Our guides are organized, detail-oriented people who love to share an enthusiasm for kayaking, nature, and Alaska. They are energetic, and fun and have a passion for doing their jobs to the best of their ability. They genuinely care and love to make real connections with each other and their guests, creating the best experience possible.  

Our guides are chosen because they are enthusiastic outdoor educators and skilled kayaking instructors who enjoy sharing their love of kayaking and the natural world. Our training program lasts more than three weeks and our guides are expected to continue learning throughout the season. To learn more, take a look at our safety and training overview.

Our knowledgeable reservation staff is ready to answer any of your questions. They are also experienced outdoor enthusiasts who are very familiar with Seward and Alaska. Our goal is to make it easy for your guests to explore and appreciate this dynamic place.

Several of our staff members are also year-round Sewardites who enjoy investing their time and know-how in the community. You might find them organizing the Seward Winter Family Movie Series, putting together the Seward Music & Arts Festival, helping out with the Seward Nordic Ski Club, promoting tourism on the Seward Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors or advocating for Save our Seward Pets.

All of our tours begin with a paddling orientation and safety talk. We’ll provide your guests with a personal flotation device (PFD), spray skirt, waterproof boots, pogies (neoprene mitts) and if needed, we also have splash jackets and splash pants to help keep everyone dry.
