6.5 Hour Kenai Fjords National Park Wildlife & Glacier Tour

We will head out into Resurrection Bay and venture into Kenai Fjords National Park viewing many species of wildlife as we travel toward one of Kenai Fjords most active and impressive tidewater glaciers. Here we will watch and listen to the powerful sights and sounds of the glacier. Most likely we will see ice breaking off (calving) and crashing into the ocean. It truly is a magnificent sight! Once we’ve spent some quality time at the glacier, we’ll venture out to do some more wildlife viewing while taking in some of nature’s most spectacular scenery. Depending on weather and wildlife sightings, we may visit the Chiswell Islands (a National Wildlife refuge and Bird sanctuary) and/or Cape Resurrection (one of the largest black-legged kittiwake rookeries in Alaska). Everyday is a different adventure and experience! The power of Mother Nature does not disappoint. Kenai Fjords is one of the best areas for whales and wildlife viewing and offers the opportunity to see a variety of different species. Our most common sightings include Humpback Whales, Sea Otters, Steller Sea Lions, Puffins, Dall’s Porpoise, Mountain Goats, Harbor Seals, Orca Whales (Killer whales) and a large variety of bird species. We will provide you with a vast amount of information on all of the animals and surrounding areas that we’ll be exploring throughout the day. In addition, we will have marine mammal books, bird guide books, and other informational material on board. Nothing can compare to seeing all of this natural beauty up close and personal. Our small group tours will not only provide you with a more intimate experience, but also a much more personalized and flexible tour. Whether it be scenic photography, searching for rare bird species, or finding whales and other exciting marine mammals, we will do our best to cater to everyone’s interests. Our vessel, the Outright, is a 47’x15′ aluminum catamaran and is U.S. Coast Guard certified to hold 30 passengers, but we limit it to 15-22 passengers to maximize your space and comfort. There is plenty of cabin space and seating inside to accommodate everyone. We also have a very large outside viewing area with bench seating on deck as well. And of course there is a bathroom, also known as a marine head, on board. The Outright is powered with quad 300hp outboards, allowing us plenty of speed to get to all of the best viewing areas!
