Prince William Sound Alaska Cruise Tour)
Climb aboard the
Emerald
Sea for a memorable cruise to the most spectacular glaciers in Prince William
Sound Alaska. Your host will be a uniformed National Park Ranger, who will
provide narration on your journey and point out the many spectacular sights
while fielding any questions you may have.
In addition to witnessing glacier events like calving and icefalls, you'll also
see breathtaking scenery, towering waterfalls and wildlife such as: eagles,
harbor seals, otters and bird rookeries - all in the relaxing comfort of our
Coast Guard-certified ship.
Your glacier cruise departs daily from Whittier and ventures into the calm,
protected waters of Prince William Sound, where seasickness does not occur.
As the ship enters Blackstone Bay, you'll
see
the massive Blackstone and Beloit Glaciers looming in the distance. As we move
in closer, the glaciers grow larger, until they tower 1,700 feet over our
100-foot vessel. Rather than sailing from glacier to glacier, we stop at each
one, floating among the icebergs, giving you plenty of time to take in Mother
Nature's glorious ice sculptures. Listen for them to groan and watch for them to
crack and calve off enormous sections of ice.
Our modern Coast Guard-certified vessel is designed for your comfort with indoor
heated cabins, multiple outside decks, a full service bar and clean restrooms
not to mention our experienced friendly crew who will assure your comfort and
safety at all times.
