What To Expect

Resurrection Bay

We’ve been exploring the magic of Kenai Fjords since 1974—we’re leaders, trail-blazers and the most experienced company in the area. From the waters of Resurrection Bay to the distant fjords and glaciers, a lifetime of passion and adventure comes together with every tour.

Kenai Fjords National Park

Your adventure in Kenai Fjords begins at the harbor in beautiful Seward, Alaska. Check in at our central office and enjoy the sights and sounds of the lively waterfront. When it’s time to board, head down the dock to your vessel, where you’ll be greeted by our team of deckhands. The journey begins as you sail out of the Seward harbor—watch for the resident bald eagle and seals! From here, different tours take different directions. As Resurrection Bay opens into the rugged Gulf of Alaska, our exploration into Kenai Fjords National Park deepens. No matter the tour you choose, you’ll have plenty of wildlife-watching opportunities, see stunningly craggy coastlines, meet our enthusiastic and knowledgeable team of deckhands, learn and discover along with our passionate captains and explore the majesty that is Kenai Fjords.

What an amazing day. When we arrived they said due to 8ft waves and the poor/rain conditions we may not make it all the way out and we could transfer our day....on a tight schedule we went for it and it did not disappoint. Our captain and all the team were amazing, yes the conditions were rough (but I kinda enjoyed riding the waves) but we made it all the way out and STILL SAW WILDLIFE..... humpback whale, orca, sea otter, sea lions, porpoise , harbor seal, also puffins, and other sea birds. We ticked it all off the list. Please don't let the rain put you off....were we soaked through yes...did we enjoy it 100% YES.... No such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing. ..so true. (The lunch was good too) Enjoy....it's amazing! !!!

We travel a great deal, and this was among the best tours we have ever taken! The boat was comfortable, the included lunch was tasty, and the warm cookie at the end was heavenly. But the BIG difference was Captain Mark L! He provided narration during the excursion that was enormously informative, interesting, humorous, and even thought provoking. He's extremely knowledgeable, provided salient info that was clearly organized and timely, and his delivery was so precise we thought he must be reading it (frequent peaks into the bridge and surprises on the trip proved this wasn't happening). He's a truly gifted, professional presenter. You'll see if you ride with him! We loved all the wildlife and nature we saw on our trip and appreciated the deep-seated emotion invoked when experiencing this is in person. It was hard to choose which of the variety of tours would be best for us, and we're thrilled we chose the Northwestern Fjord. We gave up dinner on the island for a longer time on the water and more opportunities to see wildlife. WELL worth it!! We will do this trip again, when we return to Alaska, and we have NEVER repeated an excursion. It was just that good!
