This bay can be crowded with tour buses, but you're literally at the end of the road from Alaska here, and there are fine views. You need not stay long, but you'll get a sense of remote nature of this area in just a moment. More

Four of us plus our guide went canoeing in the same boat. We wore rubber boots and waterproof pants to make sure we stayed dry. The winds were rather high so if you choose this activity, make sure you are dressed in layers with a hat and gloves. More

This is well worth a visit for the views alone or you can go trekking and see even more up close. It's at the end of route 3 the national highway and is really impressive. Well worth a visit. More
