Ocean Discovery – Ketchikan, Juneau & Skagway

About this cruise

This is the kind of cruise where you actually have time to go back to a port highlight you missed the first time. 14 nights from Vancouver on August 19, 2028, visiting Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Whittier and Hubbard Glacier. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. The wildlife alone makes it worth it: whales, bears, eagles, sea otters. Bring binoculars. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, Crown Princess keeps you well fed. 13 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. You start in Vancouver and come back with stories from Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Glacier Bay, Whittier and Hubbard Glacier.
