 Prince
William Sound is a magnificent region with over fifteen thousand
square miles of fjords and inlets, dozens of tidewater glaciers and
rugged mountain peaks. The sound's clear sea waters produce a rich
marine life. Spot for whales, seal, eagles, otters and black bear.
Make a photo-stop landing at a secluded cove.
Flight
Route: Depart from Lake Hood, the world’s largest and
busiest floatplane base, and fly east over the Chugach Mountain
Range, “hanging” glaciers and alpine valleys into another world:
Prince William Sound. On the extended tour, include Columbia
Glacier, Prince William Sound's largest tidewater glacier and
possibly a swing by Glacier Island to view sea lions sunning
themselves on the rocky coastline. Make a photo stop landing at a
secluded cove before returning to Anchorage. Flight route can vary
according to weather; your pilot will advise as to the best route
for the best flightseeing depending on the conditions on your day of
flight.
