The Inside Passage
Alaska’s Inside Passage boasts wildlife-filled fjords and lush island scenery, a habitat for bald eagles, sea lions, porpoises, and whales formed by the overwhelming force of colossal glaciers millions of years ago. Ketchikan serves as Alaska’s southern most port for the majority of Inside Passage cruises and is a major center for sport fishing. Visitors can tour the Tongass Historical Museum, which offers exhibits of conventional native culture, a history of the fishing business, and an example of a timber camp bunkhouse. Juneau, Alaska’s capital and the gateway to Glacier Bay National Park, is a lively mix of contemporary architecture and charming Victorian homes. Popular attractions include the St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, Macaulay Salmon Hatchery, local museums, and the famous Mendenhall Glacier. Fly over the magnificent Juneau ice field, birthing ground to more than 40 glaciers or you can take a scenic boat tour to magnificent Tracy Arm Fjord to view birds, seals, and whales. |
