Danger Island & Totem Bight

OVERVIEW

Participate in your choice of fun activities on Danger Island and learn about the symbolism of the colorful totem poles at a state park in town. After a short cruise to the island, you will feast on a meal inspired by the ones served in logging camps. The surrounding forest provides an ideal setting for you to join in activities such as survival skills training, culinary lessons, competitive games and making s'mores around the campfire. Everything offered is optional, so you can craft whatever island experience suits your mood and abilities. A longer return cruise along the waterfront allows you to look for iconic Alaskan wildlife while the on-board naturalist describes the animals and the local environment. As you wander through Totem Bight State Park, you will discover much about the culture of the indigenous people that hand-carved the totem poles and the symbolism of the figures that adorn the poles.
