Ericknow32 Posted August 19, 2005 #1 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Has anyone done this excursion in Alaska. It seems interesting. I was wondering what you all think of it. Would you do it. Have you done it. And if you have done it I would like to know If you recommend it. Thanks in advance. I still can't get over snorkeling in Alaska _________________________________________________ Mountain Point Snorkeling Adventure Approximate Duration: 3 Hours Adult: 91.00 (USD) | Child: 91.00 (USD) Immerse yourself in Southeast Alaska's underwater world as you snorkel the calm and clear waters of Mountain Point. Stay warm in a quarter-inch wetsuit complete with hood, boots and gloves, as you hover among Alaska's diverse marine life. Local water temperatures often exceed those of the Northern California coast. After a short ride, you will be outfitted with all the necessary equipment and be given a brief orientation before entering the water from a protected beach. Observe and handle a variety of multicolored sea stars, urchins, sea cucumbers and the giant sunflower star during your one-hour guided marine life tour. Discover the myriad of fish that inhabit these waters while snorkeling over the kelp forest. A hot beverage is provided before returning to your ship.

enyaw Posted August 19, 2005 #2 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I was on the Radiance last year---and I did this excursion. It was a total blast! The company makes sure your well insulated and off you go....exploring the underwater life in Alaska. If you've ever snorkled anywhere else---it's completely different. You'll see halibut---lobsters---jellyfish. Nothing compared to the Caribbean---but hey it's one heck of a fun time! I highly recommend it!!

nerak Posted August 20, 2005 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2005 The people in the cabin beside of us did it in Alaska on our June cruise. They had never been snorkling anywahere and absolutely loved it. It sounded like a great trip...they talked about the starfish and sea urchins along with lots of fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylortroop Posted August 20, 2005 #5 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Hubby and I snorkelled in Alaska in June of this year. Neither of us had ever snorkelled before and we loved it. Water was 57 degrees but in our wet suits we were toasty warm. Cool underwater sea life, lots to see. Definitely recommend this excursion. We only had a group of 5 people, with 3 guides, there was lots of one on one attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
