Your Itinerary:
2-3 Day Charter: Cruise Tracy and Endicott Arms. These are both awesome fjords with sheer granite cliffs and pristine waters, where glaciers meet the sea, just 45 miles south of Juneau. A relaxed two or three-day trip may be just what you’re looking for.
4-6 Day Charter: Explore Admiralty Island, the "Fortress of the Bears". This national monument and wildlife preserve is approximately 100 miles long with 700 miles of saltwater shoreline. With 1 million acres of old growth rainforest, Admiralty has enough cruising waters to keep you occupied kayaking, hiking, and fishing for the duration of this charter. On this cruise we will go into Seymour Canal where brown bear viewing is especially good.
7-10 Day Charter: Outer Coast Expedition. This is another great cruising experience for those who have the time to explore the rugged coast and some of the most spectacular scenery in Southeast Alaska.
On our way to the outer coast as we pass through Icy Straits we will undoubtedly observe humpback whales, sealions, dalls porpoise, puffins, pigeon guillemots, and many other species of seabirds. The entrance to Glacier Bay is here and we can prearrange a separate day cruise out of Bartlett Cove to tour the bay. We will visit Elfin Cove, a quaint community surrounded by boardwalk on the northern end of Chichegof Island, only accessible by small vessels. Then travel down Lisianski Strait to the small fishing village of Pelican before we head out to the open ocean and perhaps as far south as the city Sitka the first Russian capital in Alaska before we turn back and head for home through Peril Straits and into Chatham Strait which heads north to Juneau.
Other Ideas:
Honeymoon Cruises! For the most romantic honeymoon imaginable, charter a sailing cruise through Southeast Alaska on any of the itineraries mentioned, or do a little of everything! Soak in the natural hotsprings on Baranof Is. after a day of whale watching or hiking the Tongass rainforest. View glaciers and seals hauled out on icebergs and kayak the fiords in the same day to return to a hot shower and champagne on the after deck while your skipper prepares a feast of your choosing. Fresh King Salmon on the barbeque, organic green salad and homemade bread with a chocolate torte for dessert?
