Iliyojipanga kati ya Pasifiki na Milima ya Pwani, Vancouver ni lango la asili kuelekea Inside Passage ya Alaska — jiji ambapo msitu wa mvua wa wastani unakutana na minara ya kioo na ambapo crab wa Dungeness na samaki wa sockeye wa mwituni huunda chakula cha baharini kinachoshindana na chochote nchini Amerika Kaskazini. Tembea kwenye ukuta wa baharini wa Stanley Park wenye urefu wa kilomita 22, jichanganye katika soko la Granville Island, kisha chukua feri hadi uzuri wa Edwardian wa Victoria. Msimu wa meli za Alaska unafikia kilele kutoka Mei hadi Septemba, na kufanya Vancouver kuwa mahali pazuri pa kuanzia kwa moja ya safari kubwa za baharini duniani.
The Seymour Narrows is a 3-mile/5 km stretch of the Discovery Channel north of Vancouver Island, British Columbia that is notorious for the strength of the tidal currents flowing through it. The average width of the narrows is just 750 meters. During extreme tides, the current through the narrows is subject to severe Venturi effect, resulting in an increased velocity that can reach 15 knots. For much of its modern history, there was an additional hazard in the narrows called Ripple Rock, a shallow obstruction that claimed no fewer than 119 ships and 114 lives. In 1958, after months of tunneling and preparation, Ripple Rock was blown up in the largest commercial, non-nuclear explosion ever recorded in North America. Still, the navigation of Seymour Narrows is dependent on tidal and other conditions, and requires skill and technical accomplishment.
The Queen Charlotte Sound lies between the Queen Charlotte Strait, which winds between Vancouver Island and the British Columbia mainland in the south, and Hecate Strait, which is northward, adjacent to the Haida Gwaii Islands off the Pacific coast of British Columbia. It is a broad reach in the long shipping route called the Inside Passage threading the myriad islands stretching from Washington’s Puget Sound to Alaska.
Ketchikan inashikilia pwani yenye misitu ya Kisiwa cha Revillagigedo katika panhandle ya kusini-mashariki ya Alaska — mji mdogo kiasi kwamba wenyeji wanakisia kuwa ni maili tatu ndefu na vizuizi vitatu upana. Inaheshimiwa na watu wa Tlingit kwa maelfu ya miaka kama mahali pa samaki wa mwituni, leo inasherehekewa kama Mji Mkuu wa Nguzo za Kumbukumbu za Ulimwengu: makusanyo katika Kijiji cha Asili cha Saxman na Hifadhi ya Kihistoria ya Totem Bight yanahifadhi mkusanyiko muhimu zaidi wa kazi hizi za sanaa za monumental popote. Mtaa wa Creek, ubao wa nyumba za kihistoria za rangi uliojengwa juu ya Ketchikan Creek, haupaswi kukosekana. Majira ya joto (Mei–Septemba) huleta hali bora ya hewa, huku samaki wa mwituni wakikimbia kwenye mito chini.
In the passage between Sumner Strait and Clarence Strait in Southeast Alaska’s Alexander Archipelago, midway between Price of Wales Island on the west and Zarembo Island on the east, is a small cluster of islands with a picturesque passageway between them called Snow Pass. It makes a scenic up-close route for your Seabourn ship during the transit.
Decision Passage is the western end of the Sumner Strait, which runs through the Alexander Archipelago into the Pacific Ocean in Southeastern Alaska, bounded on the north by Kuiu Island and Cape Decision, the location of a 1932 lighthouse. This is the route your ship takes when coming from or going to the colorful historic community of Sitka on the west coast of Baranof Island, which was originally the Russian fortress town of New Archangel.
Sitka, iliyoko kwenye pwani ya mwituni ya Kisiwa cha Baranof katika Alaska Kusini-Mashariki, ni moja ya bandari zenye historia kubwa zaidi katika Kaskazini Magharibi ya Pasifiki — mahali ambapo dome za vitunguu za Orthodox za Kirusi zinainuka juu ya nguzo za totem na msitu mkubwa wa joto unashuka hadi pwani. Hifadhi ya Kitaifa ya Sitka inahifadhi eneo la vita la 1804 kati ya wapiganaji wa Tlingit na wakoloni wa Kirusi pamoja na mkusanyiko mzuri wa nguzo kubwa. Kutazama nyangumi, kuendesha kayak baharini kati ya otter wa bahar, na kutafuta dubu wa kahawia katika mwituni vinaunda uzoefu wa nje. Mwezi Mei hadi Septemba unatoa hali zinazoweza kufikiwa zaidi na mwangaza mzuri.
Yakutat Bay is 18 miles wide at its entry, and cuts from the Gulf of Alaska into Disenchantment Bay, the entryway to the huge Hubbard Glacier, North America’s largest tidewater glacier. As the bay narrows and the shorelines draw closer, the 400-foot face of the glacier exerts a luminous, ghostly presence, often from as much as 30 miles away. More and more floating ice dimples the surface of the water, and seals bob up and disappear again. The chilled air from the glacier flows in a downdraft of cold that gives rise to mists and gray clouds, through which the vivid blue of the ice wall shimmers. It is an impressive sight of nature’s immense raw workplace, shaping the earth itself as part of an endless cycle of water from the sea evaporating to the sky, falling as snow on the heights and inching over centuries back again to the sea.
The Hubbard Glacier is the largest, and one of the most spectacular tidewater glaciers in North America. Its ice cliffs, some 400’ (121 m) tall, calve icebergs into the fjord, which may frequently be larger than a five-story building. The glacier’s surface is creased and contorted, resembling the wrinkled skin of a giant elephant. Records show it has been growing in thickness and advancing since 1895. This stands in stark contrast to other glaciers around the world, most of which have been receding during the past century. In 2002, the glacier blocked Russell Fjord for two and a half months, raising water levels 61’ (18 m) and threatening local communities with flooding. Nutrient-rich waters along the glacier face attract many species. Gulls and kittiwake colonies adorn smaller islands and harbor seals patrol the icy waters. In 1890, Israel Russell explored the area of Yakutat Bay and Hubbard Glacier, naming it after Gardiner G. Hubbard, a financier of his expedition and a founder and the first president of the National Geographic Society. VIEW CRUISES
Visiwa vya Inian ni kundi la visiwa vya porini, visivyo na watu, kwenye mlango wa Cross Sound wa Alaska, vinavyojulikana kwa kukutana kwa wanyama wa ajabu ikiwa ni pamoja na nyangumi wa humpback wakila kwa kutumia mbinu ya bubble-net na makundi makubwa ya simba wa baharini wa Steller. Mambo ya kufanya ni pamoja na safari za Zodiac kando ya pwani za mwamba za visiwa, kutazama kula kwa ushirikiano kwa nyangumi, na kuchunguza madimbwi ya mawimbi yaliyojaa maisha ya baharini. Tembelea Julai–Agosti kwa shughuli za nyangumi za kilele na hali bora ya baharini.
Icy Strait Point ni bandari ya kupendeza ya Alaskan inayojulikana kwa uzuri wake wa asili wa kupigiwa mfano na utamaduni wa asili wa Tlingit. Mambo ya kufanya ni pamoja na kufurahia samaki wa baharini wa kienyeji na kuanzisha safari za wanyamapori katika Hifadhi ya Kitaifa ya Glacier Bay. Msimu bora wa kutembelea ni wakati wa miezi ya kiangazi, wakati hali ya hewa ni ya wastani na wanyamapori ni wengi.
Haines ni mji halisi wa Alaskan katika fjord yenye kina kirefu zaidi barani Amerika, nyumbani kwa mkusanyiko mkubwa zaidi wa tai wa bald duniani — hadi ndege elfu nne kando ya Mto Chilkat — na jamii ya sanaa inayostawi inayohifadhi tamaduni za Tlingit. Tembelea kuanzia Juni hadi Agosti kupitia Cunard au Lindblad kwa kutua kwa helikopta za barafu na matembezi ya pwani, au Oktoba hadi Februari kwa onyesho la ajabu la tai ambalo linafanya Haines kuwa siri bora zaidi ya Alaska.
Lynn Canal is a 90-mile long inlet into Alaska’s coast running from the Chilkat River in the north to the Chatham Strait and Stephens Passage in the south. Because it connects the towns of Skagway and Haines to Juneau and the rest of the Inside Passage, it is an important shipping lane for ferries, cargo and cruise ships, and was a crucial passageway to the Klondike gold fields during the Gold Rush. It was discovered by Joseph Whidbey in 1794 and named by George Vancouver after his birthplace, King’s Lynn in Norfolk, England. More than 2,000 feet in depth, it is one of the deepest and longest fjords in the world, and the deepest in North America outside Greenland.
Mji mkuu pekee wa jimbo la Amerika ambao hauwezi kufikiwa kwa barabara, Juneau inarudisha safari hiyo kwa uzuri wa pori ambao miji chache duniani zinaweza kulinganisha. Barafu ya Mendenhall — mto hai wa barafu ya kale — iko dakika kumi na tano tu kutoka katikati ya jiji, ambapo ndege za maji zinapita juu ya pwani iliyo na milima ya spruce inayozama moja kwa moja baharini. Uzoefu wa lazima ni kutua kwa helikopta juu ya uwanja wa barafu au safari ya kutazama nyangumi katika Stephens Passage, ambapo nyangumi wa humpback wanaruka kwa karibu sana. Juneau ni joto zaidi kutoka Juni hadi Agosti, ingawa hata siku za majira ya joto zinaweza kuleta mvua maarufu ya Kusini Mashariki ya Alaska inayoshika msitu wa mvua kuwa na mwangaza wa kudumu.
