About Discovery Voyages

Offering high quality 3 - 6 day cruises with a maximum of 12 guests on the historic Discovery in beautiful Prince William Sound, Alaska (just south of the largest Alaskan city, Anchorage). We do offer a handful of trips that incorporate Denali National Park as well. Prince William Sound encompasses 3,800 miles of coastline to explore via kayak and foot. The Sound is home to the densest concentration of tidewater glaciers in the world, containing 50 glaciers and 17 tidewater glaciers (touching the ocean), known for dramatically calving huge ice chunks into the sea. Enjoy spectacular views from sea level up to 13,000 ft mountain peaks. More than 220 species of birds (and around 200,000 seabirds summer in the Sound), along with 30 species of land mammals, and at least a dozen marine mammal species make this area quite special. Resident marine mammals include humpback, sei, fin, minke, killer whales, and dall's porpoise as well as Steller sea lions, harbor seals, and sea otters. In western Prince William Sound, black bears may be seen on narrow beaches and are most often seen fishing when the salmon are spawning.

Fabulous experience! The small boat enabled us to get very close to all types of wildlife and scenery. The crew was fantastic, very knowledgeable and accommodating. We felt like we were in a five star hotel. Once in a lifetime experience, but would I do it again, you bet!

Discovery Voyager 5 Day Cruise The Discovery cruise was majestic - even with 3 days of rain! Captain Dean and his co-captain/chef/wife Meg, along with crew team Tori and Tyler, were amazing guides and stewards of Prince William Sound, knowledgeable, super helpful and always cheerful. Accommodations were tidy and comfy and Meg’s meals were outstanding. Really enjoyed the small group of passengers too.

My only complaint was that we were not told that the Orca and wales were only seen in early spring. I may have booked an earlier trip had I known that. Perhaps you could inform people what animals they are most likely to see depending on the time of year.
