Highest on everyone’s wish list when visiting the Sound are whales and glaciers. This is our solution. Structured like our Harriman Fiord trip this is mostly a day paddling/basecamping trip. The scenery is much more pelagic than Harriman, the big ocean views lend themselves to wonderful whale watching, in fact we have been incredibly entertain for entire days without ever having to leave camp, whales, sea otters, sea lions, river otters, bears, mink, bald eagles and puffins all seem to come to us, the glaciers are more stubborn and requires day paddle trips. The two tidewater glaciers we visit could not be more different which makes them perfectly complimentary as well; one is steep and narrow the other 2 1/2 miles wide and slopes gradually to the sky, both calve regularly.
Your Itinerary:
Day 1:
The trip begins in Anchorage with a drive down the scenic Seward Highway to Whittier. We board a water taxi that takes us south to the Icy Bay region. We will camp here and explore and orient to the boats in the afternoon.
