Activities and exploration

Kayaking, Zodiac cruising, guided hikes and wildlife watching are central to the voyage. Lindblad also lists stand-up paddleboarding at Chichagof Island when conditions permit. A certified photo instructor supports photography on board.

Your ship: Greg Mortimer

Lindblad publishes a capacity of 154 guests in 77 cabins for Greg Mortimer. Its X-Bow design, four Zodiac launch platforms and hydraulic viewing platforms support the expedition programme. Between outings, there are observation spaces, a library, gym, sauna and two outdoor hot tubs.

We help you compare the available cabin categories, layout and location for your chosen sailing.

Life on board

Watch the coastline from the observation lounge, share the day’s discoveries over dinner, or unwind in the sauna. The ship’s public spaces are part of the experience between outings.

EA guidance

Travellers wanting kayaking, Zodiac exploration and forest walks alongside a major glacier visit.

The Gulf of Alaska brings exposed-water sailing. Conditions determine the approach to Hubbard and whether a Zodiac outing is possible. We can compare this voyage with the other Lindblad Alaska options and help you choose the route, season and cabin that fit your priorities.
