Cruises in the Kenai Fjords

Your adventure in the Kenai Fjords begins at the port of the stunning town of Seward, Alaska. Check-in at the central office and soak in the sights and sounds of the lively waterfront. When it’s time to board, make your way to the dock to your vessel, where you’ll be greeted by the deckhand team.

The journey kicks off as you depart from the port of Seward: keep an eye out for bald eagles and seals! From there, different tours take different routes. While Resurrection Bay opens into the rugged Gulf of Alaska, exploration of Kenai Fjords National Park deepens.
