Ocean Discovery – Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point & Tracy Arm/Endicott Arm

About this cruise

You board in Seattle on September 4, 2028 for 7 nights visiting Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau and Victoria, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. Icy Strait Point alone is worth the trip, Wilderness at the edge of the Inside Passage. With about 6 hours at each port, you'll want a plan, or at least a shortlist. MSC Poesia has 5 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. Seattle itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. Worth booking. That's the short version.
