Whale Watch Alaska — Attraction in Juneau

I went whale watching with Captain Cory at the helm this morning Friday, May 17th. 2013. We went out towards Shelter Island North of Juneau, where Cory had mentioned that it was very common where humpback whales come in going in a counter clockwise motion and he was right.

We saw about 5 hump back whales, and no sooner than we spotted one it began to breach and put a show on for us. We kind of hung around this area and it took about 10 minutes and one of the whales had come very very close to the boat. It was an amazing site as it rolled over in front of the bow.

Tons of fun, I recommend going on a whale watch...

Whale Watch Alaska was amazing! Cory our skipper was very informative, polite and friendly. We got to see Dall's Porpoise and Humpback Whales. The porpoise were coming right along side the boat as we cruised to Steven's Passage a few even leaped right out of the water! They were close enough for me to make out their eyes. We also saw Humpbacks bubble net feeding. as we were a small party we got a really intimate experience that I am very grateful for. Cory was the best! I would really enjoy the chance to go on his Whale Watch...

We recently went out with Captain Cory on a whale watching tour. We saw sea lions, eagles, and several whales. Seeing a humpback whale breach several times was a memorable sight. We also saw a cow and calf traveling together - both 'blowing' together when they surfaced. Cory's description of the beautiful scenery and his knowledge of the wildlife added to the great experience. The tour was very personable and never felt 'canned' or 'old hat'. I definitely suggest Captain Cory for a whale...
