This leisurely tour of the awe-inspiring Misty Fjords begins when you depart Ketchikan's picturesque harbor, passing colorful floatplanes and fishing boats en route to a wilderness experience you'll never forget. "Flying" at sea level along the rugged coastlines, your vessel will stop to enable you to view an active bald eagle's nest and a Tlingit pictograph. Admire New Eddystone Rock, an immense volcanic spire rising from the emerald sea and learn the natural history of the fjords while gliding quietly beneath 3,000-foot vertical cliffs. Feel the mist from glistening waterfalls and hear the call of seabirds nesting on rock faces sculpted by glacial forces. Then enjoy a selection of snacks and beverages while watching for whales, seals, eagles and other wildlife before returning to Ketchikan.
