Discover the stunning coastlines and secluded islands of Juneau with Cast Away Charters’ water taxi service. Perfect for fishing, wildlife viewing, or simply escaping into Alaska’s wild beauty at your own pace.
Cast Away Charters operates out of Juneau, Alaska, offering personalized boat experiences that connect visitors with Southeast Alaska’s coastal scenery and wildlife. The company’s lineup includes a Water Taxi for custom island exploration, Halibut/Rock Fishing Charters limited to four fishermen, a private Whale Watching Charter that accommodates up to six passengers, and a Salmon Charter operating from Auke Bay.
Each journey is designed as a four-hour outing, providing manageable windows for half-day adventures while maximizing time on the water. Halibut and rock fishing tours emphasize intimate groups—just four fishermen—so trips stay focused and personal. Whale watching cruises are private and family-friendly, welcoming parties of up to six for close encounters with local marine life. The Salmon Charter offers a 4-hour excursion in Auke Bay with scenic views and opportunities to connect with nature.
Cast Away Charters highlights the region’s glacier vistas, island landscapes, and the Tongass National Forest as backdrops for every trip. Services combine flexibility—such as water taxi transfers between islands—with guided recreational outings like charter fishing and wildlife viewing. Booking is structured around private trips and short-format excursions to suit visitors with limited time in port or those seeking tailored experiences.
Across offerings, the operator focuses on providing a safe, memorable day on the water through small-group trips, private boats, and local route knowledge that enhances sightseeing and fishing opportunities. Reservations and scheduling accommodate short notice when available, and the operator tailors itineraries to passenger interests within the constraints of weather, daylight, and port access.
