These trips highlight the spectacular tidewater glaciers of College Fjord, Harriman Fjord, Barry Arm and Blackstone Bay (depending on trip). Also depending on trip and month, you will likely see sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters, puffins and other seabirds, plus good chances for humpback whales, and possibly Dall's porpoises and black bears. We get as close to glaciers as ice conditions and safety allow. Our careful adherence to protection guidelines assures that your trip will have a minimal affect on wildlife's natural behavior.

Another of our long-time standards, we cruise narrow, scenic Esther Passage, and spend plenty of time visiting three active glaciers that empty into a mile-wide bay at the head of Barry Arm that is rimmed with steep, rugged mountains. We also visit a small puffin colony, sea otter feeding grounds, plus a secluded, wildlife-rich bay.

Compared with crowded big-boat glacier tours operating from Whittier, for just a few dollars more we offer a value-added experience and we definitely have more fun!

This tour features the closest calving glaciers to Whittier. Enroute to Blackstone and Beloit Glaciers at the head of the bay, we pass abundant waterfalls along the Bay's scenic shoreline. We then head for open waters and islands where we'll likely find sea otters, Steller sea lions, harbor seals, puffins and a variety of other wildlife. In early summer, there's a good chance for humpback whales and Dall's porpoises.
