Day | Description | Arrival | Departure |
---|---|---|---|
Friday, August 6, 2021 | Juneau, Alaska | ||
Arriving in Juneau, you will be transferred from the airport to our hospitality area before boarding the ship later that afternoon. Upon boarding, your crew greets you with champagne and smiles. Set sail for a week of scenic channels and secluded wilderness. |

Saturday, August 7, 2021 | Endicott Arm and Dawes Glacier | ||
We’ll visit an area widely acclaimed as the most beautiful in Alaska—a pristine tidal inlet and fjord. Explore by kayak or skiff and view rugged ice-covered mountains gleaming high overhead and an actively calving glacier. |
|||
Sunday, August 8, 2021 | Icy Strait and Cross Sound | ||
In the richest whale waters in southeast Alaska, we’ll watch for humpback and other whales, porpoise, sea lions, and other wildlife. Late afternoon, we’ll drop the skiffs and kayaks for closer inspection of the remote coastline with eyes set on shore for possible bear sightings. Tonight, enjoy the upper deck hot tub! |

Monday, August 9, 2021 | Glacier Bay National Park | ||
For two days we’ll explore Glacier Bay National Park with a National Park ranger. You’ll cruise to the tidewater glaciers of Grand Pacific and Margerie, which frequently calve huge icebergs, and if conditions permit, we’ll lower skiffs and weave among the icebergs in the bay. |

Tuesday, August 10, 2021 | Glacier Bay National Park | ||
On day 2 of our exploration of Glacier Bay National Park, you might start the day by paddling your kayak in the quiet of this majestic wilderness, looking for puffins and sea lions, mountain goats and bears, moose and eagles—and admiring scenery more spectacular than any on earth. |
|||
Wednesday, August 11, 2021 | Chatham Strait and Captain’s Choice | ||
Today you’ll cruise along the scenic Chatham Strait—Shee ya xhaak in the Tlingit language—a narrow passage through the Alexander Archipelago with waterfall-laced coasts on either side. The captain (who knows the 'locals-only' spots) will set a course to sites where we’ll be most likely to spot wildlife. |
|||
Thursday, August 12, 2021 | Frederick Sound and Stephens Passage | ||
Explore Frederick Sound and Stephens Passage—another excellent chance to view humpback whales and other marine wildlife. Pass by Five Fingers Lighthouse, and watch for playful antics at a large sea lion colony. Later, we’ll cruise picturesque bays, and we’ll end the day with a festive farewell dinner. |
