An Alaska glacier cruise is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to see some of the most magnificent features of Alaska up close and
personally. Cruising the sparkling waters of Alaska 's wilderness offers glimpses
of the last true undisturbed place in the United States.
Perhaps the most spectacular feature you will see
on an Alaska glacier cruise is tidewater glaciers. Massive glaciers rise straight
out of the sea to heights of several hundred feet. Witnessing a glacier calve (huge
slabs of ice break away) is awe inspiring. From the comfort of our small Alaska cruise ships you'll have a front row seat to this wonder of nature.
Prince William Sound glacier cruises are simply amazing. Nowhere else in the world does there exist such a collection as in Prince William Sound. Prince William Sound glacier cruises are so exciting because of the abundance of glaciers. In a few short hours we can bring you to the face of almost thirty glaciers. The mountains of the sound and surrounding area were largely shaped by these glaciers many years ago, and it is fascinating how you can see the glacial action and how it has affected the landscape. You'll learn about the different glaciers and how they have reacted to time.
For those wishing to experience Alaska's glaciers
in a more peaceful and personal manner, there is kayaking. Paddling gently through
the water, amongst icebergs and sea otters, you can explore the glacial landscapes
on your own terms! Whether you're an experienced kayaker or just trying it for the
first time, we can arrange the kayaking trip that is right for you. An Alaska glacier cruise is a special experience from a sea kayak.
We at Alaska Charter Yachts hope you'll take a little time to explore some more of our site and find out about our vessels and the Alaska adventure cruises that we operate. We look forward to hearing from you and sharing an awesome experience with you in Alaska! |
