Anadyr Adventures
 
Anadyr Adventures Anadyr Adventures has been operating tours in Prince William Sound from Valdez since 1989. This year-round Valdez family operation specializes in sharing their Alaska with you.

Valdez Glacier Hiking and Kayaking Historical Trip: Our guides will transport you by van to the Valdez Glacial lake where we begin our trip in inflatable double kayaks, paddling around large and small icebergs to the face of the glacier. Here we start glacier hiking while enjoying expansive views, crossing crevasses safely, and passing glacial streams which have cut deep ravines in the ice forming shimmering sky blue water pools on the glacier. Our experienced and knowledgeable guides will conduct interpretive glaciology discussions as well as share with you the many tales of miners and fortune seekers who traversed across the glacier during the Valdez Gold Rush Days of 1889. No experience is necessary. We provide expert guides and all the gear necessary to safely explore the glacier. Dress in layers; bring comfortable hiking shoes, rain gear, lunch and water. Camera and binoculars are optional. Total trip time: -7 Hours

Shoup Glacier Sea Kayaking and Hiking : Our most popular day trip to date, Shoup Glacier, is unique to Prince William Sound because it has two tidal basins. Abundant with sea-life, marine birds, ducks, sea otters and harbor seals, Shoup Bay has the fastest growing Kittiwake rookery in Prince William Sound with more than 20,000 birds and 6,000 nests. Great for hiking, kayaking near icebergs, and observing harbor seals hauled out on ice floes, Shoup Bay is the ideal trip for beginning kayakers and kids. Our efficient and comfortable water taxi, The Bluff Watch, is used for round trip transport to kayak departure point (40 minute boat ride each way) Dress in layers, bring rain gear, lunch and water. Camera and binoculars are optional things to bring. Total trip time -8 hours Actual time kayaking and hiking 6 hour

Glacier Island Day Tour: Join Anadyr Adventures for an awe- inspiring day of sea kayaking along the rugged southern coast of Glacier Island. Situated at the mouth of Columbia Bay (home of Columbia Glacier, Prince William Sound's largest tidewater glacier), Glacier Island offers the opportunity to paddle alongside abrupt and dramatic shoreline usually indicative of lands exposed directly to the open ocean, while staying within the sheltered waters of Prince William Sound. We'll explore towering sea-caves, visit with tufted and horned puffins and Stellar Sea Lions, and have a good chance of seeing Orcas and Humpbacks. Dress in layers, bring rain gear, lunch. And water. Cameras and binoculars are optional things to bring. We use a water taxi for transport to kayak departure point (about one hours of scenic ride each way). Due to the semi-exposed nature of this trip, it is weather dependent, with a Columbia or Shoup Glacier day trip as an alternative option. Total trip time - 10 hours. Actual time kayaking and hiking is 6 hours
