Good to know

This full-day cruise departs from Harbor 360 Hotel in Seward, Alaska. If you are driving from Anchorage, please allow ample time for travel due to construction and traffic on the Seward Highway. Motion sickness-prone individuals may want to consider alternative options, as this cruise ventures into the open Gulf of Alaska. However, our half-day Resurrection Bay cruises offer equally stunning sights without the extended time at sea. Make sure to bring your camera to capture the incredible moments and consider dressing in layers to adjust to changing weather conditions.
