Guided Photography and Scenic Tours

Birding, marine mammals, scenic wonders, wildlife viewing and photography, all in a single day!

Doug Ogilvy can explain much of the human and natural history of the area, while doing a boat trip past the mouth of Glacier Bay to Cross Sound, at the northern outlet of the Inside Passage.

We will take in a different view of the majestic Fairweather Range on the outer coast of Glacier Bay National Park, then do a “mug up”, and walk around the quaint board-walk village of Elfin Cove. Back aboard the boat, we'll set out to see a beautiful natural stone arch reaching nearly a hundred feet out of the ocean, visit bird rookeries, and observe sea lion haul outs.

We'll possibly get a close up of commercial salmon fishing operations, or halibut long-liners working their gear. The larger tides in this region create some of the most dynamic ocean currents in Southeast Alaska, and we will experience how they create a feeding frenzy for bald eagles and sea lions.

Whales, seals, and sea otter are not forgotten — we will enjoy their presence during much of the trip.
