AN ESTABLISHED ALASKA ADVENTURE BUSINESS

Alaska Sea Kayakers presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established adventure tourism business based in Whittier, Alaska, with direct access to the glaciers, fjords, protected waterways, and wilderness of Prince William Sound.

Operating from multiple locations in Whittier Harbor, the business offers guided sea kayaking, day tours, multi-day wilderness adventures, kayak and equipment rentals, paddling instruction, custom excursions, wilderness camping, glacier viewing, and boat-assisted kayaking opportunities.

The diversity of the operation allows it to serve first-time paddlers, experienced kayakers, independent travelers, and visitors seeking professionally guided Alaska wilderness experiences.

This offering provides an opportunity to acquire an existing Alaska tourism operation with an established name, specialized equipment, operating infrastructure, and strategically located harbor facilities.

PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND

Whittier provides exceptional access to Western Prince William Sound and its glaciers, rugged coastline, waterfalls, wildlife, protected waterways, and remote wilderness.

Current Alaska Sea Kayakers adventures extend into destinations including Passage Canal, Blackstone Bay, Whale Bay, and Nellie Juan. From introductory excursions near Whittier to extended wilderness trips, the location supports a wide range of experiences from the same operating base.

• 32-foot-by-8-foot rear deck
• Kayak ramp

Lot 13 consists of an approximately 30-foot-by-40-foot site and is represented as land leased from the City of Whittier.

Together, Lots 11 and 13 provide operating space supporting the Alaska Sea Kayakers business.

Final lease terms, assignments, and transferability are subject to confirmation and buyer due diligence.

Together, the Harbor View and Harbor Triangle facilities create a multi-location operating footprint within Whittier Harbor.
