Wild Alaska Cruises
Experience the extraordinary.
Cruise aboard Wild Alaska’s 85’
Perseverance to a world away from the crowds. Discover
Alaska’s Inside Passage- a world of cascading
waterfalls, towering glaciers, and playful bear cubs.
All- inclusive six and seven-day cruises
are limited to eight guests and feature a new and
spectacular moorage each evening. No other people for
miles- just whales, seals, sea lions, orcas and otters.
The four guest staterooms are large and feature comfy
beds and full ensuite baths.
Wild Alaska’s talented chef creates hot
breakfasts and gourmet dinners for you emphasizing
Pacific Northwest ingredients – berries, fresh crab,
shrimp, halibut and salmon. Crisp salads, decadent
desserts and wine are always in season.
Sound amazing? It is! But why not have
it all? Wild Alaska is the premiere sportfishing cruise
of Southeast Alaska. Specially designed 26’ all-weather
guide boats are outfitted with experienced guides and
the latest tackle and electronics to offer you remote
and exhilarating fishing opportunities. Go for a Salmon
Grand Slam – catch all five species of Pacific Salmon in
one day or hook a huge halibut- all on calm pristine
waters.
Wild Alaska’s crew of five is ready to
make your Alaska dream come true!

breakfasts and freshly ground Alaskan- roast coffee
greet you each morning. Hot appetizers await you at the
end of your sightseeing or fishing day. Enjoy a drink on
the deck, along with a bucket of shrimp or other
tantalizing treats. Special requests and diets can
easily be accommodated.
Activities:
Sportfishing is our specialty and catching halibut and
salmon is what we do best. Go for a Salmon Grand Slam –
catch all five species of Pacific salmon in one day- or
catch lots of tackle smashing halibut and lingcod or
some of the 32 different species of rockfish. If bear
hunting is your wish, ask us about our self-guided black
bear hunts in May. See hundreds of whales, bears,
eagles, orcas, otters, seals and sea lions. Go shrimping,
crabbing and clamming nearly everyday. Grab a kayak and
explore a rainforest cove or take one of the 14’ skiffs
and flyfish a nearby stream. Take an exciting trip to
one of the incredible glaciers. See giant icebergs and
the amazing colors that appear only in 10,000 year-old
ice.

Wild Alaska assists you in baggage transfer and
transportation. Plan to arrive Juneau or Petersburg the
day before your cruise departs. Hotel reservations are
easily secured in both cities and Wild Alaska Cruises is
