Blackstone Bay Glacier Cruise

A shorter, focused cruise to Blackstone Bay, home to two of the most active tidewater glaciers in Prince William Sound. The boat spends extended time in front of Blackstone and Beloit glaciers, where calving events — chunks of ice crashing into the water — happen frequently. Sea otters, harbor seals, and kittiwakes are common residents. The four-hour duration is more manageable than the full 26 Glacier Cruise and is ideal for travelers with limited time or those concerned about seasickness. Departs from Whittier harbor. Hot beverages and snacks available. This is the best value glacier cruise in Whittier, offering concentrated glacier viewing without the full-day commitment.
