Living in Alaska does have its benefits. I have lived all over the the United States, from the East Coast to the West Coast, but never have I lived any place as beautiful and with as much to offer in the outdoors, as in Alaska.
Pros: An unbelievable show of nature! Incredible wildlife and scenery. Cons: It can be VERY cold!
It was the worst of days; it was the best of days. It was cold, gray, and rainy. The mountains were covered in a thick blanket of clouds. We were bundled up in sweaters, winter jackets, hats and gloves, and yet the wind still made us shiver. We were...
Pros: Breath taking scenery ... glaciers, wildlife, & mountains Cons: Can be expensive to do it all!
Seward Alaska and Kenai Fjords Wildlife Cruises
We live here in Alaska, and Seward is one of our very favorite places to visit! About 5 years ago we had four relatives come visit us, and two of them had never been to Alaska. We wanted to go...
Pros: BEAUTIFUL; lots to do Cons: frickin' cold (bring a jacket and gloves)
Well, here it is! The first review I've written about Alaska itself since living here. This one's for you, Starrion, as I know you would have loved the Kenai Fjords and marine cruise I went on with my mother, Artmom.
Pros: beautiful,1 good trail,for people of all ages Cons: can be crowded
Last summer I volunteered in Kenai Fjords National Park for 5 weeks with the Student Conservation Association. I left around the middle of June and came back at the end of August.During the last week I was there we also went to Denali and down to Taroka...
Pros: Breathtaking scenery and lots of wildlife. Cons: Have to take a boat to see the glacier.
You can only reach the glaciers by boat, but it is well worth the trip and expense. You can take a 1/2 day cruise on a 95 foot ship or an all day cruise on a much smaller vessel, we did both. The larger ship doesn't take you as close to the glacier and ...
Pros: Beautiful scenery, wildlife, chance to see glaciers Cons: Not a lot of activity from land
Kenai Fjords National Park is one of the amazing parks that the state of Alaska has to offer. The vast majority of the park is reached only by sea. There are several tour companies in Seward that give boat tours, including Kenai Fjords Tours, Major ...
Pros: A chance to get up close to wildlife and glacier Cons: None but bring a warm jacket
Just getting off a cruise from Vancouver, we knew we were not going to have a chance to go to Exit Glacier so we decided to spend some time in Seward and visit the Kenai Fjord National Park. We booked a 6 hour tour (which included a salmon dinner)with...
Pros: Beautiful Park, Whales, N.Western Glacier Cons: Expensive; Not too many animals
Date trip: 8/12/00
Trip: 6 hours on Catamaran through Kenai Fjords National Park
Cruise Organization: Wild Life Quest

Pros: Wildlife & Tildal Glacier Cons: Eat salmon and waste :30 for sales pitch
My wife and I took the 6 hour dinner cruise in July of 2005 through Kenai Fjords National Park. I recommend it with one large caveat which almost ruined it for me. Basically, we were hijacked for about a 1/2 hour when we visited "fox" island. On the ...
