Glacier Bay is a collection of fjords and inlets, home to 16 active tidewater glaciers, all five species of Pacific Salmon and 25 percent of the total number of bird species in all North America. It is located in the middle of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, a 3.2 million acre sanctuary. Rangers come on board during the hours you spend in the Bay to explain the various glaciers you will see and the natural history of the region. In just over 200 years, the ice of Glacier Bay has retreated 65 miles. When Captain George Vancouver visited in 1794, the entrance to the Bay was a wall of ice. Entrance to Glacier Bay is closely guarded in order to protect the delicate environment, so cruise lines must apply for permits to visit.
