Nestled between 3,000-foot high granite walls, the narrow, twisting slice of ocean called Tracy Arm Fjord weaves through the Tongass National Forest
for roughly 35 miles. The shoreline is spotted with waterfalls created by melting snowcaps and trees sprouting at odd angles from rocky outcroppings.
You will have ample time to admire the landscape and perhaps catch sight of a few native animals as you cruise through this port.

The One Thing You Don't Want to Miss:
| |
|
|
The Sawyer Glaciers at the end of Tracy Arm may not be the most famous glaciers in Alaska, but many visitors
find them to be the most dramatic. Framed by mountains on either side, the glaciers are often bathed in a light mist that
amplifies the blue hue of the ice.

Other Fun Things to Do:

Get to know the locals: The glaciers are home to black and brown bears, wolves, deer and moose.
Look for seals and whales in the fjord's icy waters, and frequent bald eagle appearances overhead.

Check out the fjord's many icebergs from close up as the ship maneuvers around them.
The texture and color of the ice is quite different from the smooth stuff you put in drinks!
