Overview

This 6-hour boat cruise from Seward crosses about 100 miles round-trip through Resurrection Bay into Kenai Fjords National Park. The vessel travels around Cape Aialik into Aialik Bay, where it approaches an active tidewater glacier. Passengers observe the calving process as large ice chunks break off and fall into the water, floating among icebergs near either Holgate Glacier or Aialik Glacier. The cruise includes onboard narration by the captain, who points out wildlife such as whales, sea otters, sea lions, and puffins. A deli lunch and beverages including water, coffee, and tea are provided, and binoculars and heated cabin seating are available for comfort throughout the journey.
