Marine Wildlife

Whale Watching, Stellar Sea Lions, Walrus, Sea Otters, Dall Porpoises, Harbor Seals

One of the delightful things about visiting Alaska is that you get SO much more than you bargained for. You might be on a glacier cruise, for example, but later realize you were also on a wildlife cruise due to the incredible amount of Alaska marine life passed by while you were on the way to that glacier. Alaska’s marine life will astound and delight you, from rolling orcas to breaching gray whales, from lolling sea lions to curious harbor seals and sea otters. Bring that camera and take back the memory of a lifetime!
