Juneau Waterfront
Immediate views of the Alaska State Capitol and the busy cruise ship docks along the Gastineau Channel.
Boundary Ranges
Panoramic vistas of the snow-capped mainland mountains that define the border between Alaska and British Columbia.
Kootznoowoo Wilderness
Deep views into the heart of Admiralty Island, home to the highest density of brown bears in North America.
Seymour Canal
A long, narrow inlet known for humpback whale activity and spectacular shoreline geography.
Pack Creek
A glimpse toward the famous bear viewing area where the rainforest meets the tidal flats.
Sit on the left for the morning flights to catch the sun illuminating the Coast Range. Keep your eyes peeled for 'bubbles' in the water—this route crosses prime humpback whale feeding grounds. This side is also better for spotting the unique 'marbled' pattern of the muskeg bogs in the island's interior.
