Not only will you experience the tranquility and dramatic views of Alaska, but also if you would like to see a whale, your chances are pretty good through the Frederick Sound passage. Known as being the best whale waters of southeast Alaska, you will almost be sure to see at least a few humpback whales and if your timing is right, you will be able to see groups come up to the surface to feed within a few hundred feet of your ship.
