Renown Tours:
Gray Whale Watch:
Give into "Spring Fever" and join the
crew of Renown Tours for a day that is sure to become one of your
fondest Alaska memories. Come along as we head out to the opening of
Resurrection Bay to watch Gray Whales as they begin their annual
migration north from Baja California to their summer feeding waters in
the Bering Sea. Gray Whales travel by "line of sight", which means that
they travel close to the coastline on this amazing journey. While
cruising this pristine setting, you will view alpine glaciers, Steller
sea lions, Dall's porpoise, harbor porpoise, harbor seals, bald eagles,
puffins and many other types of marine birds. You might even be treated
to sightings of Orca (killer whales) or Humpback Whales. Our tour is
fully narrated by our experienced captains and naturalist crew members.
Lunch is included. Complimentary beverages include coffee, tea and hot
chocolate. Additional snacks and beverages are available for purchase.
Weather is unpredictable in Alaska's coastal region, so be sure to dress
in layers, wear comfortable walking shoes and bring along light rainwear
so that you can fully enjoy your day. Binoculars provided on all of our
cruises. Be sure to remember your camera!
