At 186-foot-long, the 74-passenger Wilderness Explorer can navigate closer than most vessels to bring the wildlife of the smaller bays of the Alaskan coast in to focus.
With 37 cabins in three categories spread over three decks, each with good sized windows, the vessel offers a sun deck with a hot tub, a sauna and fitness equipment. Kayaks, paddle boards and skiffs are available for use during the day. The vessel benefits from a hydrophone for listening to below-surface sounds and a bow-mounted underwater camera that transmits the action to the lounge and your cabin television.
