Sitka, Alaska Port Reviews

It was ok - small. Bus ride to park

Fin Island Lodge and Zodiac Adventure - Oh wow the food is incredible! And, the ride in the Zodiac is phenomenal - we were able to get up close to whales in a way you simply cannot in the larger whale watching excursion boats.

Excursion was the "Jet-Cat Wildlife Quest & Beach Explore." With the "Jet-Cat" description we were expecting a fast boat. Instead it was a fairly large boat which moved at average speeds. The island we visited was a small - very small island (Star Fish Island). The crew did a great job narrating the trip and assisting passengers. Unfortunately, we did not see any whales. The only animals we saw on shore were some deer and otters. Certainly there is never a guarantee you will see wildlife. Still, the views are well worth the trip.

Did the Ghost tour, she was a great story teller.

We rented a car here and ate a lot of local food. Sunny day, spent it outside and because we had a car, we felt free and did laundry in a laundry mat, explores tidal pools, hiked around at the historical park. Great day. A bit tricky with the rental car tho.

Pretty native. The Raptor Center was very educational

too long of a stop, add time to Ketchikan

Great little town. You have to try the Russian dumplings. There the best.

Horrible lines for shuttle to get to town and then back. Time in port was already limited.

We walked to the Totem pole park which was nice and walked around town.
