We had a chance to book a last minute Alaskan cruise for August, but when I tried to book the Whale Watching trip for our Hoonah shore excursion with the top rated boat tours, they seemed to all be booked. I was disappointed but we were very pleased that we were able to go whale watching with Eric from Ear... More

We loved our morning with Captain Eric and his son, our first mate! We had booked our charter ahead of time and were pleased to have a fellow cruise traveler and his son join us. We were on our way to our fishing spot within 30 minutes of coming to shore. The four of us caught around 45 halibut total.... More

My husband and I went whale watching with Capt. Eric in Sept. 2011. This was the only excursion we booked and were really looking forward to it. The experience was fantastic. We saw numerous whales, a bald eagle, sea lions and sea otters. Capt. Eric was very accommodating and obviously knew the area very well. I would highly recommend booking... More

Really enjoyed the half day salmon fishing trip with Capt. Eric. He gave us lots of interesting information about commercial fishing and crabbing in Alaska. Plenty of time out on the water so that we could have the opportunity to catch some salmon! And we did! We also had the opportunity to see some whales from the boat in the... More

Just returned from our Alaskan cruise. Spent the day with Captain Eric on 7/4/11. Could not have asked for a better whale watching experience. He made our trip personal and exciting. His knowledge of the area and wildlife was great. His personal stories about the waters and the whales were interesting and fun. He gave us information about the small... More

Hired fishing/whale watching guide Eric Williams for a half-day charter out of Icy Strait Point. Our cruise ship tendered us to the pier and Eric was waiting for us. Fished for 4 hours or so with eagles, whales, and salmon all around us. Caught eight salmon, with pretty steady action the whole morning. Eric worked very hard and gave us... More
