The Hubbard Glacier and Glacier Bay at Sea

We are at sea for two days and plan to enjoy the glacier views from our state room.  We're on the port side of the ship so our views should be great!

Hubbard Glacier

Our at sea tour of the Hubbard Glacier looks like it takes a turn into the Yakutat Bay.

The Hubbard Glacier is massive and it's moving so fast (as much as 7 feet per day) that it poses a threat to block off sea access to the Russell and Nunatak Fjords that connect to north end of Disenchantment Bay (the northern end of Yakutat Bay).

Glacier Bay National Park

Our visit to the Glacier Bay National Park will be from the deck of our cruise ship.

National park rangers will board the Nieuw Amsterdam and set up an on-board visitor center.  They will also be providing a running narrative of the park as we pass by.
