Tongass Kayak Adventures
Hi, my name is Scott Roberge and I own Tongass Kayak Adventures. I've been called an "old timer" in the sea kayak guiding world, though I prefer the term "experienced."

I began organizing kayaking, skiing and hiking trips in 1976, back when I was a broke college student who loved to get outdoors. Leading tours to great areas around the West Coast, I refined and strengthened my guiding skills.

My life changed forever when I came to Petersburg, Alaska in the summer of '81. I paddled an old Grumman canoe all over Southeast Alaska and got hooked! In 1985, I started a kayak tour company and spent the next ten years teaching thousands of people to kayak in the waters of Mexico, the Pacific Northwest and Alaska.

In those days we lived out of our van with a trailer of kayaks behind. We had lots of fun, but spending only three months in Alaska just wasn't enough. Today, I only organize trips out of Petersburg, Alaska, my home, through Tongass Kayak Adventures.

We are a small company that prides itself on offering the best paddling experience possible in the wilds of Alaska. My guides are all trained in emergency first-aid and sea kayak safety. All tours carry radios and wilderness emergency gear to ensure you a safe and enjoyable adventure.

To learn more about our tours, please check out the online slide show and customer testimonials or contact me directly.

Owner and lead guide at Tongass Kayak. He has been leading kayak trips since 1985. Well-known for his outdoor cooking skills, Scott whips up some amazing culinary delights during his trips.

Scott's pick: Even though he's paddled into LeConte Glacier Bay hundreds of times, it's still his favorite destination.
She has worked with Scott since the late 1980's. She started her paddling life on the rivers of West Virginia, but now prefers sea kayaking. LeAnn's a great storyteller (must be the West Virginian influences) and a person you will not soon forget. LeAnn's pick: Whales, whales whales!
Marja began working for us as an intern from Western Washington University where she studied Recreation and Spanish. An avid traveler and outdoors-woman, Marja is more at home in nature than she is on busy city streets. She loves to explore the woods--her enthusiasm for local plants and natural history is contagious!
Born and raised in Petersburg Margaret has that small town charm. A keen naturalist with a love of low tide and its exposed tide flats. Coming from an activate outdoor family she has explored the forests and the waters of Southeast Alaska for years. Her winters are spent at Western Washington University.
Having spent her early years
in the Anchorage area Austin
has a love of Alaska. An avid photographer and bird watcher Petersburg has become her summer home. Her energetic personality and love of nature will enhance your adventure with us.
The guides caring, talent and knowledge blended together to make this feel like a family rather than a commercial trip.
