The Best Water Taxi Prices in Seward!

If you find a better Seward, AK, water taxi rate than ours, we’ll match it! One of our most popular services at Miller’s Landing is our water taxi. Water taxis are a great, inexpensive way to go camping, kayaking, fishing, hiking, or sightseeing in remote areas only accessible by water.

We offer water taxi service to all points in Resurrection Bay and the Kenai Fjords National Park, using large, safe boats with enclosed cabins and U.S. Coast Guard licensed operators. Our vessels have heated cabins and plenty of room to haul kayaks, camping gear, mountain bikes, and backpacks, and they can take up to 22 passengers at one time. We also occasionally use a large, open skiff for short runs. Miller’s Landing staff can assist you in planning the ideal water taxi destination for your group.

All trips originate at Miller’s Landing on Lowell Point. Pets are welcome at no additional charge. We can drop you off almost anywhere: at hiking trailheads, camping spots, fishing streams, State or National Park cabins, and good kayaking areas. You’re picked up at a prearranged location and time.

You can stay for one or two hours, all day, overnight, or several days. We have single and double kayaks available to rent to those with experience, or we can arrange a custom guided kayaking trip designed for your group of any skill level, at a water taxi destination of your choice.
