Ocean Discovery – Icy Strait Point, Glacier Bay & Sitka

About this cruise

You sail from Seattle on July 14, 2028 and spend 7 nights visiting Icy Strait Point, Glacier Bay, Sitka, Ketchikan and Victoria. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. 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. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. With about 7 hours at each port, you'll want a plan, or at least a shortlist. As for the ship itself, There are 14 restaurants on Norwegian Joy, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. 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.
