What To Expect

Resurrection Bay

Kenai Fjords Tours is pleased to welcome you to picturesque Fox Island, in the heart of Resurrection Bay.

Kenai Fjords National Park

In Kenai Fjords National Park, over half of the landmass is covered by the enormous Harding Icefield, a thousand-foot block of ice that dates back to the last Ice Age. The Harding spills out in all directions in the form of glaciers. Some stretch northwest into rugged hills of the Kenai Peninsula. Others—five of them, to be exact—reach as far as the sea along the craggy coast of the Gulf of Alaska.

Fox Island

Your exploration of Kenai Fjords National Park is enhanced by a chance to step off the boat, stroll the beach and explore on land. This island is rich in inspiration and character.

Bear Glacier

View Bear Glacier, the Harding Icefield's largest glacier within Kenai Fjords National Park.

After 2 activities cancelled during our Alaskan vacation, this was our last big planned adventure and it did not disappoint in any way. Our guides warned that the water was much warmer than normal and the wildlife seen so far this season was clearly impacted by the temps in a negative way. Still we saw various birds, Steller sea lions, jellyfish, Dall's porpoises, puffins, and harbor seals. The unexpected and stunning highlight was a prolonged display by a humpback whale, lasting easily 20 minutes or more. Our guides and NPS host were nearly speechless themselves, a sure sign that we were witnessing something truly memorable (as if we couldn't figure it out soon our own!). As part of this particular tour, we also had an all-you-can-eat lunch on Fox Island featuring salmon and prime rib. With our discount for reserving in advance online, our tickets were under $100 each, easily one of the best values for our money on our entire trip. While most trips probably won't get to experience what we did, it was altogether a worthwhile excursion, both in terms of time and money well spent. We felt the 5 hour trip was long enough without being too lengthy. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. We would highly recommend taking a tour with Kenai Fjords.

Beautiful day with absolutley beautiful scenery. Captain and crew were extremely knowledgable and helpful. We were able to see a family of Orcas which was amazing in addition to all of the other wildlife. Lunch at Fox Island was delicious and the staff there was gracious and accomodating. We would highly recommend the trip.

This was a wonderful day cruise that offered a buffet of prime rib and salmon (extra cost). The captain was great. We saw 3 kinds of whales, sea otters, eagles, sea lions and glaciers. Great day on the water.
