Two married guys spending two days and three nights in Gustavus. Looking to rent kayaks and take in a boat tour of Glacier Bay. Hoping to coordinate a one day kayak drop off and pick up in GB (or Tracy Arm) or use a guided outfitter. Also looking to take a GB boat tour. Recommendations on activities (kayaking in GB or TA, drop off services, with or w/o a guide), and reasonable accommodations are much appreciated. Open to all types of accommodations, inns/hotels/motels and B%26amp;Bs. Based upon forums information, there is limited accommodations, and some locations that include food are just a little more than ones that don%26#39;t. Once again, appreciate any input. Thank you
Request for Accomodations %26amp; Activity ReferencesAfter a bit more searching using the excellent gustavus.com links, I hope to secure accommodations at the Blue Heron or Good River B%26amp;B. Can anyone who has stayed at either facility share there experience? Additionally, we hope to rent kayaks from Glacier Bay Sea Kayaks, and determine how feasible it is to independently yak locally (and out to Pleasant Island)or get dropped-off/picked-up inside Glacier Bay. After deciding upon our yak outing, we hope to decide on a boat tour destination (Glacier Bay, Pt. Adolphus or Tracy Arm) and operator. Again, any and all recommendations very much appreciated. Thank you.

The only way to kayak in GB with a drop off/pick up is to do it overnight. The boat only goes once a day - they drop you off on the first day and pick you up on the second day. You can be picked up at a different location than you were dropped off, so it avoids backtracking. Check with the outfitter - they know all the drop off points.
