Bald eagles are one of the most popular and most frequently watched birds in Alaska. You’ll have opportunities to watch the eagles as they live in their natural environment. Take advantage of the sights as eagles swoop down from the skies and snatch fish from the sea. Watch them soar elegantly and lounge about on the shore and occasionally atop the boat.

From the avid birdwatcher to the novice lover of wildlife, cruises aboard the M.V. Sikumi offer ample opportunities to view and photograph the many types of birds found in Alaska.

"It's probably the bald eagles that awed me the most. I counted nine near a stream, by the bay where we anchored for the night. One eagle was on the ground, feeding on a large salmon. Others watched from the trees and would occasionally take flight around our small group of passengers who had gone ashore to explore. The eagle feasting on the fish let me approach within about 40 feet before reluctantly taking off without its prey. Others whistled to each other, and one pair flew over in close formation, framed by a perfect backdrop of snow-capped peaks and blue sky."
