Is it possible to buy a kayak in Ketchikan Alaska?
Yes, Ketchikan has Wal-mart, which sell cheap, plastic kayaks in that time of the year. Also, Ketchikan has a store called Tongass Marine & Outdoors and they also sell Kayaks for a more exspensive price but its much better. I would either recommend that you order them online however for you can have a better selection. Also, I know Tongass Marine and Outdoor sells inflatable kayaks. They work just as good as the real ones! And easy to transport too :) Also you can just rent them from the Rec Center.
