Kenai Fjords National Park in Seward — view 2
Kenai Fjords National Park is a stunning showcase of North America's glacial landscapes, featuring over 38 glaciers that extend from the Harding Icefield. The park's rugged coastline, shaped by these glaciers, offers a panorama of towering cliffs, deep fjords, and sweeping vistas of the Arctic Ocean, creating a dramatic backdrop for wildlife observation. Exploring by kayak or boat provides the best chance to see sea otters, seals, and diverse bird life. The peak summer months are optimal for hiking and wildlife viewing, while fall brings fewer crowds and the possibility of seeing the Northern Lights. The 13-mile road to Exit Glacier is an accessible highlight for many visitors.

    Eight and a half hour cruise through Northwestern Fjord — wildlife sightings including whales, sea lions, and icebergs, with a deli lunch included.

    This cruise was a standout experience during our two-week trip. The smaller boat offered a more intimate setting compared to other tours. We encountered a wealth of wildlife and birds, with the crew expertly identifying them and sharing insights about the natural history. They also took our photos, provided lunch, and even gathered glacier ice for glacier margaritas. While we brought binoculars, they were available on board too. The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly the superpod of killer whales. They surrounded the boat, swimming and breaching, and the crew set up an underwater microphone for us to hear their vocalizations. It was truly one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. This activity is essential if you're visiting Seward.404kelseyp on the Full-day Northwestern Fjord cruise in Kenai Fjords National Park tour

    Seven-hour cruise in Kenai Fjords — flexible route allows for optimal wildlife sightings and glacier views based on current conditions.

    What an incredible day! We opted for the 7-hour tour, which I initially thought would be lengthy, but it went by quickly. The ride was comfortable, and we spotted orcas from a distance (I wish we could have gotten closer), along with humpback whales, otters, puffins, sea lions, eagles with their chicks, and impressive glaciers. The glaciers and the views throughout the day were exceptional. I highly recommend this experience. We were fortunate to reschedule our original stormy day trip to the next day at no extra cost.Kgpayette on the Flexible Kenai Fjords National Park cruise from Seward tour
