Haines, Alaska can be the perfect romantic destination for any couple. This destination offers a variety of attractions and things to do. The couple can take a cruise, enjoy the sights of downtown Haines while riding in a horse drawn carriage, see an abundance of wildlife in their natural habitat, have the opportunity to do some fantastic fishing, go kayaking and rafting or even take a hike in a rainforest. Accommodations in Haines vary from motel rooms, to bed and breakfast establishments to rustic cabins, whatever a romantic couple is in the mood for.
Chilkoot Lake is a beautiful and serene lake where the couple looking for romance can enjoy a cruise. On this cruise, the romantic couple will have the opportunity to witness nature at its best. American Bald Eagles can be seen in their natural habitat, while wild salmon are spawning in the streams and lakes feeding into the lake. Bears, including grizzlies and black bears, can be seen feeding while mountain goats do their acrobatic antics on the peaks surrounding the lake. Witness a moose as it swims the frigid water or is just browsing in the marshy areas, or kayak with killer whales.
For the couple who enjoys fishing, this is the right place for them to visit. Haines can offer saltwater or freshwater fishing as well as lake fishing or river fishing. Local guides are willing and able to share the locations of the local fishing hot spots where the tourist can catch halibut, salmon and even trout.
Kayaking is available to the adventurous couple and is the perfect way to witness Alaskan scenery and wildlife without the inconvenience of crowds. Kayaking trips range from half-a-day or up to a seven-day trip and offer the couple the opportunity to explore Chilkoot Inlet, Strawberry Island, Sea Lion Rock, Chilkoot Lake, Pyramid Island and Battery Point. Kayaking trips can be organized for any level of kayaking from beginners to the most experienced. While kayaking may be the choice for some tourists, others may enjoy a more relaxing river trip, such as a rafting trip. Rafting trips, or float trips, can be as exciting for the romantic couple as a kayak trip. These trips offer much the same scenery as the kayaking trips, but usually do not encounter any whitewater. Most float trips take about four hours and are a leisurely way to enjoy the great Alaskan outdoors.
Winter in Haines offers as much excitement and adventure as summer does. Activities available during this time are skiing, snowshoeing, dogsledding and snowmobiling. The American Bald Eagles gather at the Alaska Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve for the annual feast on spawning salmon during the winter and if the couple is lucky enough, the Northern Lights just might put on a show as the daylight fades.
Haines is a unique and beautiful area with many enjoyable features. Here the romantic couple will find majestic mountains that begin at sea level, glaciers, streams and many types of wildlife, from bald eagles to killer whales. If the couple is not the adventurous type, but still enjoys absolutely breath taking surroundings and views while enjoying time spent with each other, Haines can offer this also. Many motels, cabins and bed and breakfast establishments are found in Haines that are more than happy to cater to the couple's every whim.
