Orca Quest Cruise

Overview

Explore the world of Alaska's orca whales on the only orca-focused cruise in Seward! Cruise Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park in search of orca whales, distinguishable by their prominent dorsal fins and fascinating social behavior. Rather than following a set cruise route, our Captains take you to places where orcas have recently been seen, giving you a unique cruising experience every day. Learn about these whales from our local Captains and naturalist crew members. Hear the orca's haunting calls through our onboard hydrophone.

Excellent way to spend an afternoon and see wildlife in the bay. We were out on 5/19/21 and saw just about everything. Apparently, we were extremely lucky. We saw stellar sea lions, harbor seals, a whole tribe of sea otters including pups, eagles, sheep, humpback whale, puffins, and orcas! We were about to give up and head back to port when our captain apologized that we were going to be late in order to see an orca pod. It was amazing! The staff was top notch. They were friendly, knowledgeable and funny. Free unlimited coffee and tea on board as well as a great assortment of snacks and other beverages for purchase. I highly recommend wearing a pressure bracelet or bringing ginger/peppermint for seasickness, but they have it on board as well. We found that their Cup of Noodles did the trick. Dress appropriately. It is cold and very windy on deck but worth every second. One of our favorite activities in Alaska.

Went out on the 20th of May. Maiden Voyage of New Boat. Weather was rainy, we saw no Orca, but we did see a humpback whale, dall porpoise, otter, and eagles. Staff were excellent, and helpful.
