4-hour adventure on the Knik Glacier Pools. Guests will be given a dry suit to wear while adventuring in the freezing cold glacial water. You and your guide will participate in a few jumps into the glacial lake, making you feel as comfortable as possible getting in and out of the water. This will help to understand the drysuit / Personal Flotation Device system in the event you lose your balance on the paddleboard in the lake, you will feel prepared to get back on. Once you feel ready to take on your paddle, we will connect you to your leash and send you off into the lake for a serene paddle out and back to the end of the lake.

Frequently Asked Questions
(8)Q: Will I get seasick on Helicopter and Glacier Paddle Boarding -PRIVATE?
A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
