You will cruise through Port Wells and into Herriman Fjord, where you will be surrounded by breathtaking alpine and tidewater glaciers. The boat will travel to the end of the fjord and stop in front of the towering Surprise Glacier to give you time to watch for spectacular calving, where chunks of ice break off and crash into the water.
Your next destination is Esther Passage, a narrow marine waterway surrounded by mountains. The captain will guide the ship to the edge of a working salmon hatchery where you will learn about the life cycle of salmon.
On the way back to Whittier you will stop at the second-largest kittiwake rookery in Prince William Sound, where thousands of black-legged kittiwakes nest on the rocky cliffs. A National Forest Ranger will be onboard to narrate your cruise.
