Deep water, no ice, protected from winds by the mountains and literally teaming with sea life including otters, whales, seals, sea lions and fish, this is a must-see for everyone visiting the area. Take the dinner cruise to Fox Island (you land on the island and dine ashore) or take the day-cruise past Chiswell Island to see the glaciers. Take... More

We signed up for the 5-hour Major Marine Resurrection Bay tour because a company on-line page indicated there was a more than 80% chance of seeing whales on this particular tour. We were not disappointed. Our boat, the M/V Star of the Northwest, was quite comfortable....and we were fortunate that it was not overly crowded. (Note of caution: when cruise... More

I took a small boat tour of the bay that included a trip through Resurrection bay as well as the Holgate Glacier. The bay was amazing- we saw sea otters, hump back whales and so many orca's I just couldn't believe it. The couple interested in birds also saw several that were considered rare.

Absolutely loved the trip here, we had so much to do and so much to see, there was never a dull moment. Hope to be back someday soon!

Cruised the bay on a Major Marine tour of Kenai Fjords National Park. The area was quite scenic with snowy mountains capped by cloud formations; and there was a good variety of wildlife, with orcas, humpback whales, sea otters, harbor seals, puffins, gulls, kittiwakes, and Bald Eagles. Also, the glaciers were awesome. Went up relatively close to one and could... More

We booked Small Group Tours from Alaska Salt Water Lodge and had a grand time ... I highly recommend a small boat to do this excursion ... we were able to get closer and maneuver better for a more complete experience ... We were captained by Jim Barkley - the owner who knows the area quite well ... he had... More

We booked through KFT and did the morning kayak off Fox Island and the afternoon bay cruise; it was the perfect combination. The boat even went out of the way to follow a pod of orca whales. We saw three different types of whales and a lot of wildlife; it was money well spent.

We had a wonderful Captian/guide! He knew where to take us! We got to see a pod of Orcas, Humpbacks, seals, seaotters, various birds, mt goats! And of course glaciers! It was the last day of our visit to AK and it was wonderful!

It was very cold the day we were in Seward (late May), but thankfully the boat had an 'indoors'. Boat was comfortable. We saw Dall's porpoises, sea lions, lots of birds. Staff was nice and informative. Great trip!
