What You'll See and Do
On this tour of Wrangell’s ocean wildlife, we will depart from Wrangell for a one-hour boat ride to the best area for viewing the wildlife of the day. Your crew will decide the best location and species of animal to pursue based on recent tours and known wildlife in the area.
Upon arriving at our destination, we’ll slow down and advance carefully towards the animals in their natural habitat. Our brand-new catamaran has multiple viewing decks, giving you hours of enjoyment and plenty of picture opportunities before we make our way back to Wrangell.
You should expect to see: Sea lions, sea otters, harbor seals, and humpback whales! Orcas are often seen, but less frequent. We will also observe commercial fishing operations depending on the season and conditions.
