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.

This tour exceeded expectations. We saw a great many orca whales and other creatures. Captain Nat had great narration and did a great job of finding and staying near wildlife. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Excellent! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and extremely helpful with onboard supplies when my oldest daughter got super sick. They provided me with blankets and extra sweatshirt so we could sit outside and let her get fresh air and still see the whales without her being too cold since all the warm clothes plus her jacket I had brought were soiled with throw up.

This cruise was spectacular! I would highly recommend it. We saw 3 different pods of Orcas, humpback whale, sea lions, a sea otter, puffins, etc. It was a bit cool on the water, but the boat had indoor and outdoor scenery. This particular cruise option is only available during parts of the year (May 15th-June 15th, I think). The views are fantastic. I'm so glad I went. The crew was very helpful. I thought we might get more information about nature - e.g. mountain names, etc., but it was mostly about the marine life Shybree was an awesome crew member!
