Search for whales, sea otters, Steller sea lions, Dall’s porpoises, harbor seals, bald eagles, puffins, and many other types of marine birds as you cruise the the protected waters of Resurrection Bay on this 4 hour cruise. Rather than following a set route, this cruise travels to the best whale and wildlife viewing areas that day based on reports from other vessels. The experienced captains will explore the area’s wildlife hot spots to maximize your chances of viewing whales and other wildlife. You'll experience up-close encounters with wildlife as the ship cruises by massive bird rookeries and sea lion colonies, stopping along the route to view passing whales and otters. Peak season for whale watching is June through mid-August.

    Our six hour tour that include glaciers was canceled and substitute at this four hour tour that stayed in resurrection Bay. We did see orcas coming out of water and otters eating octopus so it was still fun.

  • Great views

    What wildlife you get to see is wholly dependent on the time of year, the weather, etc. so as long as you're expectations are in line will be a pleasant trip
