Sea Otter, Kenai Fjords National Park.

Kenai Fjords National Park

The 300 square mile Harding ice field caps the Kenai Mountains on the southern Kenai Peninsula and sends scores of glaciers into the nutrient rich Resurrection Bay. This is the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge. Our access to the park is via the small harbor town of Seward.

The most common way to visit the park is on one of the popular wildlife/glacier cruises. From these specialized vessels magnificent glaciers can be seen and heard calving ice into the sea. Abundant wildlife can be observed including humpback and orca whales, sea otters, sea lions, Dall porpoises, bears, sheep and colonies of nesting sea birds (including the adorable Puffin).

For those wishing to stay on land the nearby Exit Glacier offers the chance to get close and personal with an ice field and the Alaska Sea Life Center has an impressive collection of information and marine mammals.

We'll spend a full day in Seward taking advantage of the variety of activities available.
