Up your game and target Alaska’s wilderness for your hunt

Self-guided hunts off the road system.

Set your sights further

Hunting away from the road opens up the vast wilderness and game that SE Alaska is famous for. Seawind Aviation provides access using seaplanes that can get you into your desired hunting area.

Designed for the self-guided hunter, flights transport equipment and supplies into the backcountry seldom reached by people, where access, timing, and terrain matter.

With high-capacity aircraft and experienced local pilots, each trip is planned to support your journey. The Alaska Dept of Fish and Game provides details on seasons, areas, and bag limits: Alaska Hunting and Trapping Information, Alaska Department of Fish and Game.

What makes Hunting Charters unique?

Reach Where the Game Is

Southeast Alaska’s best hunting areas are often inaccessible by road or boat. Seaplane access allows you to reach remote locations where pressure is low and opportunity is higher.

Built for Heavy Loads

From gear and supplies to transporting harvested game, aircraft are equipped with high useful load capacity and large “Alaskan Doors” for efficient loading.

Fly Into True Wilderness

Seawind pilots bring years of experience operating in remote environments and can get you into the backcountry and out again with your game.
