We went on the full-day Yukon Island kayaking trip. You go in this cute little water taxi over to the island, where they start off with some introductory kayaking instructions. They have dry bags, so you can bring food, cameras, and layers without worrying about them getting wet. The guide was very knowledgable and pointed out sea life and features... more

My husband and I visited Homer in May 2007 hoping to kayak on our vacation. We were referred to True North Kayak Adventures by the Cosmic Kitchen restaurant. We talked to Mona on site and she explained what our options were, pricing and showed us maps of the tour. She was helpful and made us feel at ease about our... more

I moved to Homer in 1990 from Scottsdale, Arizona and it took me a bit of time to get acclimated to Alaska (I moved here with 100 pair of high heels, they're all flower planters now...)... more

We were water taxied out to Yukon Island, which is filled with calm waters and gorgeous views of mountains, trees, and beautiful rock formations. We saw sea otters, puffins, jellyfish, starfish, and bald eagles. It was relaxing and... more

We took a fantastic 3-day, 2-night kayaking with True North. We're a family of 4 with an 9 year-old daughter and 7-year old son. True North outfitted us with a pair of 2-person kayaks and provided us with a guide for the 1st half-day to get us started. They also made arrangements for us to camp at Yurts on Tutka... more

Our family, two adults and two children (11 and 8), took a daylong kayaking trip with True North Adventures in July 2005. It truly was a highlight of our Alaska trip! We saw otters, huge starfish, had seals come so close they seemed to be playing with us, an Eagle still with the fish it had caught at its feet... more

My husband and I had the best time on our True North Kayak trip. We're novice paddlers and were a little nervous about paddling in such cold water and in the middle of the bay. But a motor boat took us to this great little island where we suited up, got kayak instruction and then headed out. We went from... more
