Hello ? from Arlington, Virginia, We’re headed out on Serenade from Seattle on September 6th, 2021. Curious to see what others have planned for their Alaskan holiday! What excursions have you booked? What are you looking forward to most? Have you been to Alaska before? Hope to hear from fellow cruisers soon!

Hi Cruise Friends- We’re sailing out on Serenade on 9/6/21 with ports of call in Sitka, Icy Straight Point, Juneau and Ketchikan. This will be our first time experiencing Alaska. We’d really like to go whale watching, but was wondering if the experience would be better in Juneau or Icy Strait Point. It appears Juneau has a greater variety of whale watching adventures compared to Icy Strait. Are the whales more plentiful in Juneau? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

For any Alaska cruisers who have Icy Strait Point (ISP) as a port of call here is a handout that was provided by Royal during a recent cruise that called on ISP. ISP.PDF
