Framed by rugged peaks and the shimmering waters of Resurrection Bay, it serves as a gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park. Offering outdoor adventures and cultural delights, Seward invites visitors to explore the untamed beauty of the Last Frontier.
Embark on a glacier cruise through the pristine waters of Resurrection Bay and the Kenai Fjords. Boarding a comfortable vessel, travellers are treated to breathtaking views of rugged coastlines, dramatic cliffs and cascading waterfalls as they navigate the fjords.

Witnessing these colossal rivers of ice calving into the ocean is a humbling experience that underscores the power and majesty of nature. Along the way, keep a lookout for marine wildlife, including humpback whales, sea otters and harbour seals, which often frolic in the chilly waters of the fjords. The cruise provides an opportunity to learn about the unique geology, ecology and history of the region from knowledgeable naturalist guides, who offer fascinating insights into the dynamic forces shaping Alaska's coastal landscape.
