Day 6: Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise
So what do I say...:(! No Orcas, and whale watching was a huge let down. Monterrey has way better whale watching. However, the view of the Holgate Glacier was simply amazing. As the boat approached the glacier, huge chunks of the glacier fell into the water. The sound that followed was something that none of us expected. Another bonus was a trip to the Chiswell Island which houses the breeding ground for the Puffins, Cormorant,Common Murre & the endangered Stellar sea lion. The puffins were the star of the show. Seaward is a small sleepy town which survives on just fishing and tourist tours to the Fjords. Buying fish here seems almost impossible, however the one time we had fish, it was just amazingly fresh. Our recommendation, try Salmon Bake. Don't go by what they say, its great fish!!
