Sunny Cove State Marine Park is located on Fox Island, about 13 nautical miles south of Seward, and is a very good destination for camping overnight if you are kayaking, or simply a great camping destination in Alaska. There are beautiful pristine beaches and lush rainforest environments for hiking, as well as tall wooded areas.
There is good salmon fishing for silver salmon from mid-July through August at Sunny Cove from the beach. Be aware that there is generally not a good water source in the park and water should be carried in.

Our water taxi leaves Miller’s Landing every two hours from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Please note: Miller’s Landing encourages only guaranteed prepaid reservations. Unlike many other states, Alaska has a very short tourist season, which can make it difficult for us to rebook when we have cancellations without ample notice.
If you are booking a charter and lodging and your charter, water taxi, or kayaking is canceled due to weather, you are still responsible for the lodging or camping reservations and the normal cancellation policy applies. All of our activities are possible during rain, so rain does not constitute a cancellation. Miller’s Landing is not responsible for vehicle break downs, personal emergencies, flight delays, health issues or other unforeseen hardships. We will try very hard to work with you, but the cancellation policy will need to be applied if we cannot issue a raincheck or find an alternative solution that appeals to both parties.
Please understand that Miller’s Landing also incurs a hefty financial merchant fee from our bank for the cost of charging your credit card and again for the cost of refunding it, and there is also a cost involved for the time involved in processing and refunding your reservation in employee costs. Our goal when taking your reservation is to have a solid, guaranteed prepaid reservation. We strongly discourage the practice of making reservations without having an airline ticket or making tentative reservations. Thank you for your understanding.
