✨Scenes from Kenai Fjords National Park ✨
I’ve been to this park 3 times and I fall in love more each time! Located just over 2 hours from Anchorage, it’s certainly one of the most accessible Alaska national parks.
While it’s easy to drive to, the vast majority of the park is only accessed from the water, so you’ll definitely want to hop on a boat while you’re there!
Here is a mini-guide to visiting Kenai Fjords 👇
Make sure to leave no trace - pack out all of your trash, come prepared (carry bear spray for the Harding Icefield trail), and never feed or approach wildlife.
🥾Hike to Exit Glacier (2.2 miles), and/or up to the Harding Icefield (8.6 miles with a lot of elevation gain) if you’re up for a challenge
🛶Take a kayaking tour with kayakadventuresworldwide and get up close and personal with a glacier!
⛴️Take a wildlife cruise with majormarinetours and look for whales, otters, sea lions, puffins and more!
☕Take some time to explore the town of Seward, which has lots of shops and restaurants. My favorite spots are resurrect.art for coffee and art, lonechicharron for tacos, cookeryseward for fine dining, rowdy.radish for a breakfast spot that opens early, and Red’s Burgers to eat on a school bus
🗺️Stop at the Kenai Fjords visitor center for a souvenir, stamp or information.

A rainy, unforgettable day in Juneau 🥹 🐋 we must have seen this mother and calf breach 20+ times!!
Despite the insane rainy weather, we headed out on a whale watching tour with juneauwhalewatch… for the first 30 minutes, we thought we weren’t going to see much. Then all a sudden, the rain stopped and the whales began breaching over and over and over… Alaska, you are incredible ♥️

📍Matanuska Glacier 🧊
If you’re in Alaska, this is a must-see!
Visiting Matanuska Glacier felt like stepping into a childhood dream—a world of endless ice, shimmering blue caves, and towering peaks that looked straight out of a storybook. Seeing it in person was even more magical than I imagined.
• It’s a 2-hour scenic drive from Anchorage along the stunning Glenn Highway.
• Enter through Matanuska Glacier Park (small entrance fee for private access).
• Book a guided tour for the best (and safest) experience on the ice.
If you’ve ever dreamed of exploring a glacier, Matanuska is the place to do it. Pure, wild, and absolutely unforgettable.
