Sail past glaciers and Fjords National Park's wild landscapes

Experience some of Alaska’s most captivating scenery—including stunning glaciers and amazing marine wildlife—on a cruise into magical Kenai Fjords National Park with Expeditions Northwest, out of Seward.

Small Group Cruises into Kenai Fjords National Park

Step aboard the 26-foot Inua and set sail from the Seward Small Boat Harbor. With tours limited to just six guests, you’ll have a prime spot to enjoy the view without any crowds. Glide past gorgeous sea cliffs, rugged islands, and awe-inspiring glaciers while keeping your eyes peeled for wildlife like humpback whales, orcas, sea lions, bald eagles, otters, mountain goats, and puffins. On this 7-hour adventure, you’ll also spend some time up close to a calving tidewater glacier, where enormous ice chunks crash dramatically into the sea.

Experience the thrill of watching orcas and humpback whales engage in a spectacular feeding frenzy, showcasing the incredible marine life of Resurrection Bay.
