Glacier & Raincoast – Sitka & Prince Rupert

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 7-night sailing from Seattle on July 15, 2027 visits Ketchikan, Sitka, Tracy Arm Fjord and Prince Rupert. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 4 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Sitka, Russian heritage on a rainforest shore. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Brilliant Lady joined the Virgin Voyages's lineup in 2025. Still has that new-ship feel. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. If you can, add a night in Seattle before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And July means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
