Today was an absolutely beautiful day here in Southeast Alaska onboard National Geographic Quest. We had the privilege of sailing in the pristine waters of Glacier Bay National Park. We picked up the park ranger early and then began with our first wildlife hotspot at South Marble Island. Here we were treated to views of humpback whales, Steller sea lions, and tufted puffins. We then continued into the bay and the natural history staff was able to find nine brown bears.
The skies cleared as we reached the northern part of the park just in time to see Johns Hopkins Glacier. It was truly an incredible day here in one of Alaska’s most incredible parks.
