OVERVIEW

Cruise along the shores of Sitka Sound on a custom-built expedition vessel and look for iconic Alaska wildlife on land and in the sea. The captain will determine the exact route based on the weather and tidal conditions, animal migration patterns and recent wildlife sightings. That way, your chances of seeing wildlife will be maximized. Whether you take a seat inside the vessel or find a prime spot out on the open deck, you will enjoy spectacular coastal views of the west side of Baranof Island, which was named for the first governor of Russian Alaska. Mount Edgecumbe, Sitka’s iconic dormant volcano, and Annahootz Mountain, named for a Tlingit chief, are some of the many majestic mountains that can be seen along the way. Commentary will describe the glacial and volcanic activity that created them and the surrounding landscape. Harbor Porpoise and sea otters are frequently spotted and at times humpback whales can be seen breaching the water’s surface. It is an unforgettable spectacle.
