Day Cruises
Ocean day cruises are available in several areas of Alaska with the most popular
destinations found at Glacier Bay, Kenai Fjords and Prince William Sound. These
trips offer a wonderful glimpse of coastal Alaska with its dramatic mountain
scenery, tidewater glaciers and wildlife. Whales, seals, sea lions, Orcas, sea
otters, mountain goats, brown and black bears, puffins, kittiwakes and murres
are commonly seen during the summer months. The adventure also has the
advantage of comfortable accommodations during inclement weather as well as
naturalists on board to guide passengers through the sights along the way.
