Icy Strait Point Excursions & Cruise Tours

Located in southeast Alaska along the coast, Icy Strait Point gives you a peek inside the state's natural beauty and the diverse Alaskan wildlife. Our Icy Strait shore tours give you the chance to get off your cruise ship and close to incredible wildlife.

Go On Alaska-Sized Wildlife Adventures

Shore Excursions Group invites you to explore Icy Strait's incredible wildlife - bears, bald eagles, whales, and more. Join a whale watching tour to witness humpback whales feeding in the nutrient-rich waters near world-famous Point Adolphus, just 5 miles south of Icy Strait. Or head to Chichagof Island, about 25 miles from Hoonah, known for one of the highest coastal brown bear populations in the world. Summer offers the best chance for sightings, so bring your camera, binoculars, and waterproof gear!

Experience The Culture and History of Hoonah

Discover the rich heritage of the Huna Tlingit people and the town of Hoonah. Originally from what is now Glacier Bay National Park, the Tlingit relocated to Hoonah in 1754 due to advancing glaciers. In 1912, the Hoonah Packing Company built the area's first salmon cannery, now a restored museum and shop featuring local jewelry, warm apparel, and canned sockeye salmon. Immerse yourself in native Tlingit culture through guided canoe tours, traditional dances, and a deep connection to the land.
