Wildlife abounds here in the
remoteness of Prince William Sound. On land at any given
moment you can be enthralled by the presence of the
mysterious Black Bear or look up and see soaring Bald
Eagles looking at you from high in the sky. You might even
catch a glimpse of a Sitka Black Tail deer feeding on lush
green grass near the shoreline.
When on the water
you may get a surprise visit as Dall Porpoises play right
beside the boat. It is very common to view Sea Otters
looking curiously as you pass them by. If you're lucky you
will see them with their young pups riding on their belly
or floating next to them. To top your adventure off, you
may witness whales flourishing at certain times of the
summer as they come in to the Sound to
feed.
There are 5 species of salmon
that inhabit Prince William Sound. Regardless of when you
come, be prepared for a spectacular sight as you see the
salmon migrating through the passages to spawn by the
hundreds or even thousands in the small streams along the
coastline.
