Whittier is a tiny port town tucked into the western shore of Prince William Sound, accessible only by boat or through a 2.5-mile tunnel shared with the Alaska Railroad. Despite its small size, Whittier is a major cruise turnaround port and the gateway to Prince William Sound's spectacular glaciers, fjords, and marine wildlife. The surrounding waters are home to 26 tidewater glaciers, sea otters, humpback whales, and countless seabirds, making it one of Alaska's premier outdoor destinations.
