Following a short motorcoach ride to scenic Auke Bay, you’ll board a Alaskan-built expedition vessel specially designed for wildlife viewing. Relax in the warm, comfortable, spacious main cabin, surrounded by large windows as your experienced Captain guides you through the island studded waters of Stephens Passage. Against a majestic backdrop of snow-capped peaks and glaciers, the onboard naturalist will explain the behavior and habitat of wildlife you may encounter, including humpback and killer whales, Steller sea lions, Dall’s porpoise, harbor seals, bald eagles, and more.


To fully enjoy the sights and sounds of the wildlife, be sure to bring a warm, rainproof jacket to wear on the topside observation deck and don’t forget your camera!
