The iconic 26 Glacier Cruise navigates through all three arms of Prince William Sound, passing 26 named glaciers in a single voyage. The high-speed catamaran covers more distance than standard glacier cruises, visiting remote fjords where tidewater glaciers cascade from mountains into the sea. Wildlife sightings frequently include humpback whales, orcas, sea otters, and Steller sea lions. This is the most comprehensive glacier viewing experience available in Alaska. The 5.5-hour cruise includes a full lunch. The catamaran design provides stability and speed, with heated cabins and open-air decks. A naturalist and a captain work together to position the boat for the best viewing and photography at each glacier. Considered a bucket-list experience.
