Kenai Fjords Wilderness Lodge

Kenai Fjords Wilderness Lodge is located on the beautiful and remote Fox Island, just a short boat ride from Seward, Alaska. Your adventure begins in Seward when you step aboard a Kenai Fjords Tours cruise. Enjoy Alaska’s remote wilderness and unplug from all electronics in your private waterfront cabin. Cruise with Kenai Fjords Tours to Fox Island in Resurrection Bay and explore the ultimate island escape. Indulge in gourmet, plated meals prepared by your island chef. Awake to morning coffee or tea delivered to your door and watch Kenai Fjords National Park come alive from the comfort of your cabin. Capture the natural beauty of your surroundings with your camera or sketchbook. Treat yourself to walking/hiking and various evening programs offered by our resident naturalist. Expand your time at sea by adding one of our various wildlife and glacier day cruises, or guided sea kayaking to any stay. Your time is yours on the island! As part of our commitment to preserving this pristine wilderness getaway, Kenai Fjords Wilderness Lodge and the Fox Island Day Lodge derive the majority of their electrical power from generators powered by the sun. Guests are requested to turn off lights when not in use.

Ursa Major Charters

Ursa Major Charters specializes in customized 8-day adventure trips for 4-6 guests in southeast Alaska. Our Alaska trips are multi-activity trips aboard the beautiful motor yacht Ursa Major, and include sea kayaking, hiking, and wildlife viewing. We feel Alaska is not a shopping destination, but a chance to experience nature untrammeled by people. We cater specifically to guests who wish to experience Alaska in both adventure and comfort. The majority of the excursions during our adventure trips are non-motorized, and focus on no-trace kayaking. Aboard the Ursa Major, we turn off our power-generating systems at night to not only save on fuel, but to ensure our guests will experience Alaska without noise pollution in a tranquil setting. Ursa Major Charters holds one of the few U.S. Forest Service “Special Use Permits” for shore excursions in the Tongass National Forest. This “no-trace principle” permit allows us to hike ashore and explore places few other visitors ever experience first-hand. We offer Alaskan adventure trips, trawler training trips, whale watching trips, and glacier viewing trips all throughout the summer season in southeast Alaska, from May to early September.
