This cruise offers a diverse experience of Southeast Alaska, from fishing towns to wilderness solitude, from islands to glacial fjords. Our goal is to provide the most remote wilderness experience possible while enjoying the amenities of our wandering home.
While we have a planned itinerary, each trip differs slightly depending upon the time of the tidal currents, the weather conditions, wildlife viewing opportunities and the wishes of our clients.
This glacial wilderness supports a diversity of wildlife as varied as the landscape. On water there is the probability of sighting humpback whales, orcas, porpoises and stellar sea lions as well as numerous sea birds. On terra firma we may see black bears, brown bears, and mountain goats. There are some great halibut holes along the way and, during the right time of year, there is the possibility for salmon.
There is plenty of time to enjoy whale watching while underway and plenty of opportunity for exploring by foot and by kayak.
