About
Choose from two convenient times for our daily 45 Mile Round Trip Tour.We begin our journey at the Klamath estuary called “Rekwoi”, the Indian name for where the fresh water meets the Pacific Ocean. As your Captain turns the boat upriver and powers up the twin jets, sit back, relax and view nature in its most primitive form as it unfolds before you. Our experienced captains will provide a fully narrated river trip with plenty of stops to photograph spectacular vistas and wildlife. Bears are often seen feeding along the banks of the river on berries, fish and grubs. Ospreys return in April to their nesting area of the Klamath River from as far south as Brazil. Klamath mornings and evenings are typically cool or overcast near the coast, so dress warmly in layers. As you travel upriver, be prepared to shed some clothing as the day heats up. We recommend hats and sunglasses.
