Great charter!…read more Andrew was very quiet, but a very good guide! We quickly got all our allotted Halibut, and then he immediately took us to areas to start looking for rockfish, which we also started catching. At the Halibut spot, we were catching Halibut and Cod almost as fast as we could lower our lines, there was very little waiting. I've never been on a charter quite like that! We were originally supposed to go way out into the bay but, couldn't due to weather. However, this charter was very communicative with us, and took us out for a shorter run in a different area. Only criticism is the weird fish processing process (lots of steps and handoffs, intensely manual), but this seems like it's more of a Valdez thing than a charter thing.

Was afraid we might not see much wildlife but wow, there were so many opportunities from eagles (in trees and on icebergs), to adorable sea otters, whales, puffins, and sea lions. I easily took 200 photos! Every time something was spotted, the boat would slow or stop, and information about what we were seeing was explained. Of course, there was the star of the show - the Meares Glacier. We got very close to it and stayed there for a good 15-20 minutes. The boat has plenty of inside and outside seating and you are also welcome on the bridge. We were served a warm bagel with choice of cream cheese, butter, or peanut butter about an hour after departure. After leaving the glacier, we were served lunch. I'm a vegetarian so I brought my own sandwich but they were happy to offer just the veggies, rice, and roll without the chicken. Free coffee, tea, and water all day. Staff was friendly and approachable.

Bill took us out for a day of pulling squid from the depths of Prince William Sound the next day--a rare and thrilling experience! Even on a day where the weather was less than ideal, Bill's experience showed; he moved us across multiple locations to ensure we stayed on the fish. The views of the mountains and the Sound were breathtaking. If you are looking for a top-tier charter out of the Valdez marina, Legacy Adventures is the only way to go!

Reviews We had an awesome glacier lake kayak tour with…read moreLogan. There were just four of us (two couples); once we were outfitted with waterproof boots, jacket, and suspenders, we had about a 15 minute drive to Valdez Lake. Logan gave us a choice of paddling to the base of the glacier which would have required longer paddling or to meander around the icebergs. We chose the latter and had so much fun! Logan said the icebergs shift every day, and because of that, it becomes a bit of a maze. We even had to backtrack when we hit a dead end. Logan shared information about the history of the glacier; it was interesting to learn that many of the icebergs were a result of a strong calving in 2020. Shout out as well to Sami who answered the phone when we inquired about two possible tours so we could decide which one would be best for us. She was also there when we checked in. Her friendly personality was a welcome greeting before we set off for our tour.

Valdez Harbor is located 75 miles south-east of Anchorage at the north end of Prince William Sound,…read moreAlaska. This is a working port for the Alaskan fishing industry and the fishing boats greatly outnumber the pleasure craft. Glacier and wildlife cruises also leave from here to Colombia and Meares glaciers, notably Stan Stephens Glacier and Wildlife Expeditions. The Great Alaskan Pipeline ends here, stretching 800 miles from the Prudhoe Bay oil fields to Valdez. You can see the huge oil storage tanks across the bay where the tankers load up to take crude oil south to places like Long Beach, California for refining into petroleum. This harbor was the starting point for the ill-fated Exxon Valdez single-hulled oil tanker that ran aground on Bligh Reef on March 24, 1989, spilling 11 million gallons of crude oil into the sound and creating an environmental disaster. Captain Hazelwood was drinking on one of the waterfront harbor bars just before his oil tanker departed. I forget which bar, but it has a sign in front for notoriety value. Nowadays, appears the Sound has recovered. It's cool to walk around the harbor and check out the marina boats, the fishing activities and the stores and restaurants. Look just outside of town on the waterfront and you will see some ruined buildings that are eerie remnants of the 1964 Good Friday earthquake of 9.2 magnitude that decimated the old town of Valdez. This was one of the three largest earthquakes in recorded world history. The earthquake epicenter was in Prince William Sound and the highest tsunami wave of an incredible 67 meters (219 feet) made a direct hit on the old port town of Valdez. The town was rebuilt to the east.

I kept my boat in a temporary slip for 5 days in June, and was accidentally undercharged 5 dollars total, allegedly by a new trainee. The harbor, a couple weeks later, called me and sent me a bill for 5 dollars to cover their own clerical error (no complaint from me about the gal they are blaming for the mistake, she was very personable and professional). My complaint is not about an inconsequential few dollars, it is about the policy of harassing customers for a few dollars missed due to their own mistake! Any place I have ever worked understood it would be poor form to bother a customer over such a thing. If this place did not have a monopoly in town I would take my business elsewhere!
