Icy Strait Point, Alaska

If it's tranquility and nature you seek, Icy Strait Point is your destination.  Icy Strait Point provides guests with rich wildlife tours and authentic native Tlingit culture.  Located near Glacier Bay and the historic native settlement of Hoonah, Icy Strait Point is situated in an Old Growth Spruce & Hemlock Rainforest.  The area is home to humpback whales, orca, Dall's porpoises, seals, sea otters, brown (grizzly) bear, halibut, and all five species of Pacific salmon.  On many days, multitudes of bald eagles can be seen.

 Discover first-hand the natural wonders of a wild southeast Alaskan rainforest. Departing from Icy Strait Point, you can ride a wheeled, covered tram approximately two miles through an old growth rainforest and out along the shoreline where Chichagof Island meets the bountiful waters of Icy Strait.

Imagine being in the midst of humpback whales as they feed and frolic in the bountiful waters of Icy Strait. Then imagine overlooking a wild salmon stream, winding its way out amidst sedges and berry bushes, and suddenly, a bear's head pops out of the grass, or another one appears around the river bend.

The airspace over Icy Strait Point is not just for the Bald Eagles anymore. Now there is  ZipRider®’s longest zip line cable ride.
