Day by Day Summary and Map

Day 1 - Monday - Sep 19, 2022
Sitka, United States
Sitka, United States    
Your voyage begins with a complimentary overnight stay in this beautiful city where you can listen to the chattering of eagles and drink in the scent of the eponymous Sitka spruce as you experience the joy of this place, once called the "Paris of the Pacific". You'll find the Hospitality Desk in the hotel, and the friendly staff can assist with everything from general questions about your upcoming voyage to reserving premium experiences.
Day 2 - Tuesday - Sep 20, 2022
Sitka, United States
Sitka, United States    
Cruise Begins    
Sitka, United States    
Sitka is a place of many traditions. You'll immediately recognize the distinctive Russian domes of the churches, and may assume this city has Russian origins. You'd be right, of course, it was formally founded by the Russian-American Company in 1799. But the heart of Sitka is much deeper. The downtown area of Sitka was settled by the Tlingit people more than 10,000 years ago. For even longer, it has been home to the wild creatures who make Alaska a place unlike any other. We welcome you to your point of embarkation, where Ocean Victory waits to welcome you onboard in time for your first dinner at sea.
Day 3 - Wednesday - Sep 21, 2022
Frederick Sound, United States
Frederick Sound, United States    
Day 4 - Thursday - Sep 22, 2022
Tracy Arm Fjord, United States
Tracy Arm Fjord, United States    
Nature will dictate our route here, as we explore one of these spectacular fjords. Both are deep, narrow, and host to distinct marine environments we'll explore with experts via a Zodiac or kayak.
Day 5 - Friday - Sep 23, 2022
Gut Bay, Alaska
Gut Bay, Alaska    
Today's challenge is trying to keep track of the number of waterfalls we'll encounter as we glide along Baranof Island's beautiful eastern coast, the little known "waterfall coast". Some trickle, some thunder, some simply splash merrily to the sea. Exploration is the order of the day, and you choose your point of view - from any of Ocean Victory's observation perspectives, or right at water level by kayak or Zodiac. This almost hidden shoreline is perfect for discovery. Watch for seals, deer, and tidepools ready to reveal their secret treasures.
Day 6 - Saturday - Sep 24, 2022
Wrangell, United States
Wrangell, United States    
Wrangell is the perfect spot for an optional jet boat excursion to explore the dramatic Stikine River - what the Tlingit people call the "Great River". Spend a full day in this picturesque town as you are welcomed by the native Alaskans whose ancestors have lived on this island for thousands of years. They open their tribal home, their culture, and their magnificent river for your exploration. Take home your own petroglyph rubbing to remember your time among more than 40 ancient petroglyphs on the 8,000-year-old site of petroglyph beach.
Day 7 - Sunday - Sep 25, 2022
Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States
Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States    
The soaring granite cliffs that greet us this morning are 50 to 70 million years old. Yes, million. Ancient glaciers scrubbed deep troughs through this wilderness, leaving a scenic geological wonder. New Eddystone Rock is a remnant of long-ago volcanic activity that left the iconic basalt pillar as a testament to the power of this place. Humpback whales, orcas, sea lions, bears, wolves, moose, and hundreds of species of sea and shorebirds await as we spend most of today exploring the shoreline with onboard team of marine biologists from Cal Poly.
Day 8 - Monday - Sep 26, 2022
Ketchikan, United States
Ketchikan, United States    
The totem poles of Ketchikan and Saxman formally greet visitors to Alaska's southernmost city. Standing tall and noble, each hand-carved symbol tells a silent story. The locals with their wide, genuine smiles are sure to welcome you more warmly to the only settlement of indigenous Tsimshian people in the United States.
Day 9 - Tuesday - Sep 27, 2022
Kynoch Inlet, British Columbia, Canada
Kynoch Inlet, British Columbia, Canada    
In the spectacular setting of this provincial park, you'll discover a nature lover's paradise, with inlets, bays, islands, and fjords that reveal an intricate network of waterfalls and glaciers. Old-growth Sitka spruce and dense coastal western hemlock forests shelter black bears and grizzlies along the rugged coastline. This is a day that will stretch all your senses. Granite cliffs over 3,000 feet high drop straight into seemingly bottomless water - and waterfalls cascade from dizzying heights into glacial inlets. You'll explore unique coastal marine life in an area accessible only by sea.
Day 10 - Wednesday - Sep 28, 2022
Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage, United States
Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage, United States    
The first people to explore these picturesque waters did it in hand-carved cedar dugout canoes. You will enjoy an intimate connection to this place as Ocean Victory takes you through a narrow maze of channels, passages, and reaches from Vancouver Island to the northern edge of British Columbia. Whether you're in the expansive Observation Lounge, on deck, or on the one-of-a-kind viewing platform, keep your eye out for whales and dolphins in Queen Charlotte Sound - and watch for bears as we glide along pristine island shorelines.
Day 11 - Thursday - Sep 29, 2022
Vancouver, Canada
Vancouver, Canada    
As the journey concludes, there are opportunities for you to take in the town. Enjoy the city at your leisure or consider a post-cruise premium experience with airport transfer.
