Margerie Glacier

Travel through dramatically different ecosystems on a boat trip through Glacier Bay National Park. Discover the fully developed rainforest that surrounds Glacier Bay Lodge, the edges of the massive tidewater glaciers of the park, and look out for marine wildlife from aboard a high-speed catamaran. Depart on your tour and make your way to the faces of the Margerie and Grand Pacific Glaciers, 2 towering masses of ice and snow rising 245 feet (75 meters) above the ocean and stretching another 100 feet (30 meters) beneath the water. Try to spot marine wildlife such as Orca whales, mature and juvenile Humpback whales, sea lions, harbor seals, and sea otters. Your catamaran tour includes lunch and beverages to better enjoy the National Park. Coastal bears and moose are often seen along the shore, as well as thousands of sea birds of many varieties, and towering mountains cradle breathtaking tidewater glaciers.
