Fine Dining

Northern Explorer Adventures is the only private yacht cruise in Prince William Sound with a professionally trained chef manning the galley. While on board, you’ll indulge in the freshest, highest-quality, five-star cuisine, as well as local Alaska beers and fine wines.

The Northern Explorer
​On board the Northern Explorer, you’ll see more, stay longer and get closer. The size of our vessel allows us to access remote locations that many other ships cannot – and we spend more time at our destinations than the larger cruise ships. Plus, we get you closer, offering unparalleled viewing of Prince William Sound’s spectacular mountains, glaciers and wildlife. Our beautiful 68-foot cruising yacht is specifically designed to maximize comfort and visibility. Sit in the protection of our spotless glassed-in viewing deck, watch the scenery from our heated salon, or relax next to fire pit on the top deck.
