Water Taxi Departure Times

Departures are from Lowell Point and leave every 2 hours starting at 7:30 am to the last run at 3:30 pm. There are three water taxi vessels.

The large water taxi vessel Michael A is a 36 foot landing craft carrying up to 24 passengers. It exceeds the 5 star safety rating and has music, full electronics, a heated cabin, comfortable seating and large windows for wildlife viewing. The "Michael A" services Resurrection Bay, Day Harbor, Kenai Fjords National Park, Aialik Bay and Northwestern Fjord. We also service Nuka Bay and the Prince William Sound area upon request.

The second vessel is a 32 foot landing craft. The ThomaSea is a five star rated vessel for safety that takes six passengers. The Thomasea services Resurrection Bay, Day Harbor, Kenai Fjords National Park, Aialik Bay and Northwestern Fjord. We also service Nuka Bay and the Prince William Sound area upon request.

The third vessel is a smaller water taxi vessel, the Salty, doing trips in an open-aired 24 foot skiff and carries six passengers. This water taxi services Resurrection Bay area only.

We also have a friend with a water taxi vessel available every day assisting with Kenai Fjords National Park, Day Harbor, Nuka Bay area and the Prince William Sound area as well as Resurrection Bay areas, so if we cannot do the taxi, we can refer you to him.

Salty Water Taxi: our 6 passenger Salty Water Taxi is available for unscheduled or after hours trips at the Captain's discretion for an additional fee of $15 per person with a two person minimum.

*Note: Michael A is normally used for morning (6am to 10am and evening (5pm to 9pm) fishing trips or wildlife/sightseeing charters or custom charters. For more information on fishing charters in the evening, please see our fishing section of the website.

Departures may leave from either Miller's Landing or the Lowell Point State Park Recreational Area. Please contact Miller's Landing for departure locations for specific dates and times.

Please plan to be ready 30 minutes prior to departure. The water taxi will not be able to wait for you if you are not ready to go at the time of departure and you will need to be rescheduled to the next available time. Most water taxi times include guided kayaking paddles that are on a timed schedule and delays will cause the schedule to be offset for the rest of the day, so we must leave on time.

Allow time for parking, registering for water taxi, loading and transporting gear to the water taxi loading area; using the restroom, etc. During low tide loading/offloading will take place at the South Beach area of Lowell Point which may require more time than 30 minutes for parking arrangements, loading, etc. Please take this into consideration. If you are renting a kayak from us for your water taxi trip, please allow extra time for the kayak rental procedure and check out procedure.
