Kenai Fjords National Park

Kenai Fjords glacier cruises from Seward offer tidewater glaciers calving into the sea, humpback whales, puffins, and sea lions in one spectacular day.

Exit Glacier is the only road-accessible part of Kenai Fjords NP — easy glacier walks and the strenuous Harding Icefield Trail, 2.5 hours from Anchorage.

The only way to experience Kenai Fjords National Park is by boat. Here's a complete guide to choosing the right tour, what wildlife to expect, and how to make the most of a day trip from Anchorage.
