Island Spirit Cruise Ship, Alaska

“The food was excellent, with a chef and pastry chef on board. ”

Claude A, Flag of United States United States

Built in 1978 and renovated in 2002, the Island Spirit can accommodate up to 32 guests, in 17 cabins, for each of its trips around Alaska. Each comfortable en suite cabin has a large window and ample storage space. There's no need to worry about missing out on any incredible views whilst you sleep; the Island Spirit remains anchored at nighttime in various pretty areas. The boat carries skiffs and kayaks for adventure on the waters. There’s a covered outdoor lounge area as well as seating on the rear open deck. You can enjoy tasty western food in the stylish dining room, and watch the world go by through the large windows as you eat. The comfy sofas in the indoor lounge are the perfect place to relax with a drink from the onboard bar and chat with other guests on your small ship cruise.

Amazing wildlife and nature viewing

A gathering of 40 to 50 humpbacks, feeding just off the point at the Eldred Rock lighthouse. I've never seen anything like it. There were spouts wherever you looked. We visited the Sawyer glacier and got to see it calve.

We had a record number of wildlife sightings, including bear, mountain goat, orca, humpback, and puffin. We also saw the aurora borealis and a STEVE (Strong Theral Emission Velocity Enhancement). Truly breathtaking viewing.

Fantasy Cruises trip on Island Spirit boat was wonderful.

Humpback whales. Orca whales. Sea Lions. Sea Otters. Glaciers. Presentations about things we were seeing, by Dr. Dan Monteith (a/k/a "Dan Talks"). Tlingit peoples history, anthropology, beliefs, and sustainable practices, as explained by Dr. Dan. Truly good food throughout the day, every day. Fabulous, friendly, helpful crew, who liked each other and made the whole experience both pleasant and fun.
