The Hubbard Glacier, Disenchantment Bay, and Russell Fjord are as wonderful natural treasures as any. Guided tours are available with Yakutat Charter Boat Company’s experienced skippers.
Traversing the iceberg-riddled waters en route to the glacier is only the beginning. Standing safely onboard our heated vessels as the Hubbard (the largest tidewater glacier in North America) calves off apartment-building-size pieces of ice is one of this world’s most awesome experiences.
Along the way, bear, moose, deer, sea otters, killer whales, and many nesting seabirds are often seen. Huge fault lines along the West Coast are seen, and a little about the natural history of this dynamic region is shared.
These tours are a great way to spend time while waiting for one of Yakutat’s twice-daily jets. Tours are 4-5 hours long, and starting and ending times can be tailored to your schedule.
