About Aurora Charters

Aurora Charters has been locally owned and operated by the Hughes family since 1991, giving it more than three decades of history out of Seward. The site carries a dedication to the late Kim D. Hughes, remembered by the family as its guiding light.

The operation runs fishing charters for halibut, salmon, and rockfish along with glacier and wildlife tours, wedding parties, and other custom trips. Its fleet includes the M/V Polaris, a 36-foot by 13-foot catamaran, with other vessels — Emerald Fjord, Aurora, Orion — named in guest reviews. Full- and half-day trips include tackle, and the crew fillets the catch.

Background as described by the operator on their own website.
