One of Michele Hanson’s favorite ways to experience the Haines Tracy Arm or
Endicott Arm
“true Alaska” is kayaking Endicott Arm: “The smell of Kenai Fjords Wrangell
the glaciers, the beauty of the blue ice … you just feel so Misty Fjords
blessed to see it firsthand.” Such intimate encounters are Ketchikan
only possible on a small ship like Star Breeze. Guests get Sitka
to experience a variety of glaciers in Kenai Fjord, Tracy or
Endicott Arm, and view the waterfalls along the steep cliff Gulf of Alaska
walls in Misty Fjords all on one itinerary. Another benefit: Inside Passage Vancouver
Windstar is able to tweak it in real time — so if, say, a pod
of humpbacks is spotted bubble feeding in Point Adolphus, Route line is approximate. USA
the Captain can maneuver the ship for prime viewing.
