Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise

Cruise aboard a large, comfortable, and stable catamaran on this 6-hour cruise exploring the world of whales, wildlife, and glaciers found in Kenai Fjords National Park. Throughout your journey, narration is provided by the experienced captain and onboard naturalists, who will point out the spectacular sights and share information on the area's ecology, history, and geology. This American national park was established in 1980 by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. The park covers an area of 669,984 acres on the Kenai Peninsula in south-central Alaska, near the town of Seward. It may be the state's smallest, but it offers outsized opportunities to explore the rich glacial landscape. Spend time in front of an active tidewater glacier and explore the islands and coves of the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge. You will be provided with a delicious deli-style lunch served along with a complimentary non-alcoholic beverage on board while you cruise. This water adventure is the best option for those traveling with same-day transportation packages to and from Anchorage. Transportation will be provided to/from the cruise port as needed.
