Anchorage, Cold Bay and St. Paul or King Cove, Alaska
To quote Captain Andy, “A day onboard could be as rough or as nice as you’d like.” For the full experience, spend the day outside working. Or sit in the wheel house and enjoy the views with the Captain.
"Either way," he says. "Be prepared to freeze your a** off!"
