From mid-May through mid-June, orcas frequent the waters near Seward in search of food. Join this exciting guided cruise during peak orca season for the best chance to see these incredible whales in their natural habitat.

Orcas are distinguishable by their prominent dorsal fins, which can grow up to six feet tall, and their fascinating social behaviors. Your experienced captain will visit known orca hot spots and share real-time sighting updates from other vessels to maximize sightings. Learn about orca biology, communication, and hunting patterns through live narration.

If conditions allow, listen to their haunting underwater calls using our onboard hydrophone for a truly unforgettable encounter.
