Day 3 - Icy Strait Point / Hoonan
We started of the day arriving at Icy Strait Point which is just outside of Hoonan Alaska. This was the only location where the boat couldn't dock so we had to take launches to shore. We had booked a Sea Kayaking tour which started out fantastic. We learned an important lesson; It is really easy to sea kayak when the wind is behind you blowing at 5 knots, the tide is flowing with you and the sea is calm. IT'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT when the wind is blowing 20 knots right at you, there is a 30 ft tidal swing that is flowing against you and there are 2 ft waves! They had to bring us back in via power boat!
