Glacier Bay National Park and Reserve is named after 1980, it covers an area of 10,784 square kilometers. This National Park is no road connection with the outside world, but there are hundreds of thousands of tourists visit each year. Glacier Bay (Glacier Bay) formed in the small ice age four thousand years ago, glaciers continue to move forward after thousands of years, and reached its peak during 1750, but since then the ice began to melt back. Covers an area of 3.3 million hectares, around the steep hills, you can only reach by boat or plane. Best experience: draw a kayak in the snow 11 tidewater glaciers in Glacier Bay National Park so that there is a world famous ice wilderness, mountains and glaciers connecting the sea, and the sea has brought to the shape, size and color of different blue ice. In order to enter Moore Bay Glacier Bay, you have the ocean rafting - kayaking in Alaska coast, feel the extreme tidal changes, biting cold sea water and wind waves may encounter. No matter He Fang turning, in this large park can see tidewater glaciers such as knife-like recasting the park land. Here you may also see humpback whales, black bears, seals and vultures.

A Bay glaciers are normally accessed by boat, most delve here are cruise tourists. The views are spectacular completely snowy mountains that rise to 4000m above sea level ,. The winding glaciers flowing into the sea, the sound of breaking ice that seem thunder. A marvel of nature. The photos do not do justice to this landscape.

What a truly memorable place of sheer natural beauty! The stunning walls of ice of the John Hopkins glacier were incredible and hard to realise the enormity of. The jagged iceface suddenly let slips a huge shard of ice that plummeted into the water causing an echoing burst of sound. The blue trapped in the ice face was so striking in this land of ice and snow. Our ship glided silently and slowly through the still water as another small tourist ship slid in front of the glaciers face showing us how huge the glacier was. Seals lay on the ice flies and thousands upon thousands of sea birds visible only through our binoculars clung nesting onto the sheer rock faces. A moment in a lifetime. Surreal!

Amazing views and scenery! I was there in July 2016 and the weather was a bit cloudy but we still had great views. The park rangers on board our cruise gave us great info on the terrain, glaciers, and mountains. We also saw people kayaking near the shore. A must see and experience if you make it out to Alaska.

Absolutely out of this world, sailed into the bay on NCL Sun and got very close. Managed to see a huge chunk of ice fall into the water which was amazing. How anyone can review it on here with one start must be expecting too much from this world. My advice is to go and see it for yourself.

Amazing place to visit. Sailed here from Seattle on our sailboat, got a permit, and stayed in the park for 5 nights. Loved it... Just wish the weather was better and that there were more places to anchor / less regulation on accessing specific coves.

Super average. We have glaciers in vermont, and these look just about the same. We did see some dolphins though, but the area as a whole was quite trashy and tourist. Avoid! Some nice restaurants in juneau, if you can make it that far.

We took a cruise to visit Alaska and we were lucky that the weather was good. Come here in late July, otherwise it rains a lot here. The glaciers are melting and some of it were all gone. Come to see it before everything is gone.

Really glad my cruise ship sailed through the park - it was absolutely beautiful and majestic! The weather was perfect, visibility was wonderful, and we got to see a number of glaciers in their full glory. Highly recommend.

So beautiful, super-spectacular. One can see a lot of ice. In addition to magnificent glaciers, you can see whales, sea lions and birds.

That trip was very good and the team of crews is superb in taking care of the guests. Great experience. Time for places with more places to visit should be more time to visit, namely Victoria ( a Canada ) .

What a stunning place. The colour of the water, the ice was incredible. Even saw some small ice falls. We spent most of the day in Glacier Bay and it is impossible not to think and dwell on global warming.

We visited on a cruise boat on a day with perfect weather. Got to experience the ice crack and fall off the end of the Margerie glacier. Absolutely stunning scenery through whole area.

Highly recommend this tour sad to think global warming is taking effect when the glacier is not out as far as it was 10 years ago see it now before it disappears hopefully not

If cruising alaska you have to pick one that includes glacier bay (and college fjord if you have that option) you will not be disappointed on your scenic cruising days.

Awesome view from our cruise. The bay is very young geologically. Carved by the advancing and retreating of the glacier which is still moving right now.
