Great winter kayaking. Provided dry suits and all the necessary gear to stay warm in sub-freezing temperatures. Gotta see all sorts of wildlife, including some cute little otters as close as 100ft away as they wander up. Great guides for a great adventure, ours was Ron and he was a blast (his Spotify is also great, very David Bowie-esque).

We enjoyed the Kayak trip thoroughly. It was probably the most memorable excursion in my life. The guides Isaac and Ryan were very knowledgeable and made us feel at home while Kayaking. Trust me it's a big deal if you are doing it for the first time.

*Winter kayak tour in Seward* After a last minute cancellation to our plans with a different your company, our group of 8 was scrambling to find something fun to do on New Year's Eve in Seward. We called several companies and we're disappointed to hear that no one would offer us tours during that week. Then Miller's Landing answered! This was their first winter kayak trip of the season, but you wouldn't know it by how seamless the experience was. They had all the gear ready to go for us when we arrived and were patient as we acclimated to the dry suits. Our your guide Ron was an absolute delight--conversational, funny, knowledgeable! We spent hours on the water observing wildlife and the beautiful scenery. Ron made us some coffee and hot chocolate on the beach down the way as we took a short hiking pit stop to view some seals. And when we returned to the clubhouse, Abby and the chef had a truly delicious and freshly prepared lunch for us! They were even able to accommodate our gluten-free friend. And after heading home, we received an album of photos taken by Ron during our trip. Truly an unforgettable experience!
