Point Adolphus, AK

Apr 19, 2025 5:52 PM

Located in southeast Alaska near Gustavus, Point Adolphus is one of the best places in the world to paddle with humpback whales. Each year as these animals migrate from Hawaii in the summer, kayakers and whale watchers will have the opportunity to see them put on a show as they breach the surface, and hear their booming breath as they swim nearby. In addition to the magnificent whales, travelers will also have the opportunity to encounter orcas, sea lions, eagles, and other sea birds. For those who wish to spend time on land, Point Adolphus offers excellent hiking options along the beach and within the old-growth rainforest on nearby Chichagof Island.
