If you haven’t done it yet, we recommend whale watching; a number of species
migrate through the inside passage, including the gray, humpback, and orca.
Another great option is paddling among the numerous bays and inlets nearby, or
strapping kayaks onto a Sports Utility Boat bound for distant islands, fjords and
glaciers. Finally, take a day cruise to LeConte Glacier and kayak among the icebergs.
