Whale Watching Experience In Ketchikan
In the waters that line Alaska’s coast, an encounter with a whale is likely, if not predictable. From the remote northernmost to the lush southeast and even near downtown Anchorage – the state’s whale watching opportunities are the crowning jewel of many Alaskan vacations. And in the summer, after thousands of whales have made their way to the rich feeding grounds of Alaska waters, sightings are as plentiful as the sun. Onboard a tour or charter boat, whale enthusiasts are likely to see orcas, also called killer whales. What You Might See While Whale Watching
