Excursion Kenai fjords national park and chiswell islands cruise tour at Chiswell Islands

Explore Kenai Fjords National Park and the Chiswell Islands on a large, stable catamaran. After your safety briefing, board your vessel and embark on a 3-hour-plus sail to the Holgate Glacier and back.

Your captain guides you to the many spectacular sights as you watch for wildlife such as whales, sea otters, Steller sea lions, and Dall's porpoises. Stop at the mighty Holgate Glacier and float among the icebergs to watch for calving. Float right up to the edges of the cliffs and coves of the Chiswell Islands in the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge, home to thousands of nesting seabirds including puffins, common murres, and black-legged kittiwakes.

All too soon, it is time to make the return trip and re-board the ship.
