About Orca Quest Cruise

Book Direct with the Owner at Orca Quest Cruise with Accommodation Ohio in Seward, for all your Attraction and travel needs.

Itinerary

The Orca Quest Cruise departs the Seward Harbor 360 Hotel Dock at 12:30 p.m. This 4 hour cruise explores Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park in search of orca whales during the prime orca whale watching season. From mid-May through mid-June, orcas frequent the waters outside of Seward in search of food. Our experienced Captains will explore the area's orca hot spots to maximize your chances of seeing orca whales. Rather than following a set route, our Captains will take you to the places where orcas have recently been seen, making every day a unique cruising experience. This cruise is narrated by our knowledgeable Captains and naturalist crew members. A hydrophone will be onboard for you to listen to the haunting calls of the orca whales underwater. Snacks and beverages will be available for purchase onboard. This cruise returns to the Seward Harbor 360 Hotel dock at 4:30 p.m.

This tour exceeded expectations. We saw a great many orca whales and other creatures. Captain Nat had great narration and did a great job of finding and staying near wildlife. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Excellent! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and extremely helpful with onboard supplies when my oldest daughter got super sick. They provided me with blankets and extra sweatshirt so we could sit outside and let her get fresh air and still see the whales without her being too cold since all the warm clothes plus her jacket I had brought were soiled with throw up.

This cruise was spectacular! I would highly recommend it. We saw 3 different pods of Orcas, humpback whale, sea lions, a sea otter, puffins, etc. It was a bit cool on the water, but the boat had indoor and outdoor scenery. This particular cruise option is only available during parts of the year (May 15th-June 15th, I think). The views are fantastic. I'm so glad I went. The crew was very helpful. I thought we might get more information about nature - e.g. mountain names, etc., but it was mostly about the marine life Shybree was an awesome crew member!

What a great tour! Even with crumby weather the captains and staff did a great job keeping everyone on board comfortable. We saw ALL THE THINGS. Humpback whales, orcas, sea lions, sea otters, seals...they did such a great job spotting wildlife and keeping us informed and entertained. Totally worth it. They have snacks and drinks on board but I would bring your own, too. It’s a long tour and if you’re picky about your food or need specialty diet stuff it’s better to be prepared.

What could have been better, a lower price. The tour guides on board were very helpful, and knowledgeable. Loved the Orca’s wish we could have seen more. Thank you for the Experience.

This was a perfect trip. Our captain (Chris) was amazing and the crew was the same. We saw so much natural wildlife and were lucky enough to catch a Humpback and a pod of Orcas. I would highly suggest this trip.

The length of the tour is perfect for our 8 and 10. The crews were knowledgeable and knew their route well. We saw 3 different pods or orcas, puffins, sea lions, mountain goats, bald eagles, sea otters and a Humpback whale. What a perfect day!

This whale watching, 4 hour tour was amazing! We saw Humpback whales, bald eagles, Stellar Sea Lions, sea otters, and orcas! It’s a large boat with 3 decks and indoor and outdoor seating. They sell snacks on board and have restrooms. Very nice trip! 👍
