Location, location, location!

Our accommodation places us just five minutes from the heart of the eagle action, no long boat rides required. While other tours involve daily one hour boat journeys to reach the feeding grounds, we stay where the action is, giving you more time to shoot and respond quickly to changing light and wildlife conditions.

This rare and spectacular location draws bald eagles by the hundreds during tidal rips, offering dramatic action and interaction scenes.  Ideal for capturing compelling wildlife imagery.
