Alaska Overview
About Alaska
From snow-capped mountains to intriguing totem poles, Alaska is brimming with natural beauty and unforgettable sights. While Alaska offers more than just cold winds, prowling wildlife, and towering glaciers, its dazzling remote location remains one of the world’s most intriguing sailing destinations. A yacht charter is the ultimate way to explore Alaska’s phenomenal coastline, much of which is inaccessible by road.
The capital, Juneau, located in southeast Alaska, is a town steeped in beauty and character, perfect for exploring by yacht. South of Juneau lies Ketchikan, known for its carved wooden totem poles. The Inside Passage, with its breathtaking sights, sunsets, and glittering glaciers, is a must-visit on any yacht charter. Admiralty Island, home to the largest concentration of brown bears, is another highlight.
Keep your eyes peeled for humpbacks and orcas, plus land creatures such as wolves, bears, eagles, and moose. With opportunities for kayaking through icebergs, hiking through forests, and traversing mountains, Alaska offers unforgettable experiences, making it an enticing yacht charter destination.
