Ketchikan Rainforest Island and Boat Adventure 4 hr

Set out from Ketchikan for a coastal adventure where rainforest trails and wildlife-rich waters meet. This four-hour Ketchikan Rainforest Island and Boat Adventure pairs an exhilarating ride through Clover Passage with time to explore the quiet shores of Betton Island.

Travel aboard a motorized rigid-hull inflatable Seahawk, watching for whales, sea lions, seals, porpoises, bald eagles, and migrating seabirds along the way. On the island, follow a naturalist guide through the Tongass National Forest and its old-growth coastal rainforest. Learn about native botanical species, then pause by a campfire for an Alaskan snack. There’s also time to explore tide pools and take in the island’s unspoiled natural beauty before the return boat ride.

With a professional naturalist guide and captain, permits, snacks, and life jackets provided, the Ketchikan Rainforest Island and Boat Adventure offers a memorable way to experience Southeast Alaska’s coast and forest. Come ready to spot wildlife, breathe in the rainforest air, and discover Betton Island.
