Kayak Rentals in Miller’s Landing

Please read about our rental process and policies here before considering renting from us. If you are looking for a day paddle or are new to kayaking we recommend picking one of our guided day trips.

Please Read the Following Information Regarding our Rental Restrictions

We rent to experienced or certified kayakers

Formal Self-Rescue Training is Required! While you do not have to show us a certificate we require all renters know how to perform a paddle-float re-entry. Before confirming your rental we will perform a verbal test to see if you are able to perform a wet exit and paddle-float-re-entry. You can also email us a copy of your certification from an instructor or kayaking company.

Why do we have a screening process? Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park are far from civilization and present numerous dangers, we want everyone who rents from us to be confident and safe. Miller’s Landing reserves the right to deny rentals to any guest, for any reason.

We also offer single-day lessons where you can learn a paddle-float re-entry, and all you need to know about Resurrection Bay or Kenai Fjords from one of our guides.

Multi-day expeditions in Kenai Fjords for Cabin Rentals in the Bay

We do not rent single-day use kayaks or walk-ins. We strictly rent to folks who are staying in the cabins at Thumb Cove, Derby or Calisto Cabins, Aialik and Northwestern multi-day camping trips or cabins. When using our water taxi we will load the kayaks with your gear, we will not bring your gear separately or pick up the kayaks early, so you must rent for your full say at whatever location you are staying at.

Each day the kayak is out counts as a rental day, even if it is returned in the morning – keep this in mind for multi-day trips.

We do not allow our kayak rentals on other water taxis or charter boats without our permission for insurance reasons.

Your safety is our priority!

Miller’s Landing kayak rentals includes a boat, PFDs, spray skirts, paddles, a paddle float, a map with safety information, and a pump. We also provide a marine radio and spot beacon for kayakers headed to Kenai Fjords National Park. To ensure your safety we ask that all renters arrive early, or set up a time with our kayaking crew to set up your spot beacon and check all your gear before your departure.

Please take care of our gear

When renting from us you are responsible for caring for the gear and kayaks, we understand mistakes happen, however, we will hold the right to charge you if we believe there is any foul play or excessive damage to a kayak. You are also responsible for cleaning out all trash and gear from kayaks after your trip. A fee will be applied to your rental cost if the kayak returns in poor condition. This might could include broken paddles, kayak paddles, holes in the kayak, beer cans or trash left in the kayak.

Foul play, unfixable damage to the boat or gear (Cost of replacement)

Trash-filled, extremely dirty, or any repairable damage to the boat ($20 charge)
