Surrounded by towering mountains, waterfalls
and salmon streams, Sawmill Bay is well protected from wind and sea
and is the ideal spot for the novice kayaker's first day on the water.
Kayaking, hiking, berry picking, salmon fishing and wildlife watching
are just some of the activities possible in this uniquely beautiful
bay. Examine the complex salmon based ecosystem of coastal Alaska.
During the spawning season (mid June-September), we paddle up stream
with thousands of salmon as they return to their natal streams to
reproduce and expire. Black bears and bald eagles frequent the shorelines
to feast on nature’s bounty, as do a variety of birds and sea
mammals.
