LET’S GO WHALE WATCHING!

Probably the best whale watching tour in Juneau, Alaska! Join Captain Alan to observe the massive humpback whales of Southeast Alaska. Let us whisk you away for the whale watch of your dreams on our custom built boat, the Narwhal. We only take up to 6 passengers at a time, allowing you to escape the crowds as you join Captain Alan on a once in lifetime trip!

Every summer the humpback whales return to feed in the cold biodiverse waters of Southeast Alaska after spending the winter mating and birthing in Hawaii. These huge whales arrive in Alaska hungry after months without eating and are keen to fill their bellies with herring and other small bait fish. We see them interacting every day, during the morning and afternoon (there is not a specific “ideal time”). As there is ample surrounding wildlife, we also enjoy possible sightings of seals, sea lions, bald eagles, and on occasion killer whales, black bears, brown bears or sitka blacktail deer.

Captain Alan’s passion for the outdoors and his love of the animals is legendary. He is known for his enthusiastic narration, story telling and sharing of local knowledge. He runs every tour, so you will have the opportunity to learn about whale behavior, life in Alaska and much more! You’ll come as a customer and leave as friend.

Rest assured at Adventures in Alaska we are responsible whale watchers. The whale’s welfare and freedom are important to us. While we are whale watching, we minimize our impact on the whale’s behavior by following all federal laws as stated in the Marine Mammal Protection Act. We do not approach the whales closer than 100 yards. We do not place our boat in the path of an oncoming whale. We do not chase or harass any marine mammals. We always operate at a slow speed around the whales. We live in Juneau, and we care about the whales as much as you do!

We have created an affordable private Small Group Tour that gives you exclusivity of the boat for up to 6 family or friends. This allows for comfort and space among the people you know. Our guests have been especially happy on this tour as they can fully relax and feel safe.
