Cobalt Bay – Sitka & Juneau

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Seattle on June 12, 2027, visiting Sitka, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau, Icy Strait Point, Ketchikan and Victoria. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. Port time is tight at about 7 hours each. Pick your favourites and save the rest for another trip. As for the ship itself, Norwegian Bliss keeps you well fed. 18 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. It's peak season, so the weather is at its best and the ship will be full. That's part of the fun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 7-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
