Come with us through the calm waters of the Inside Passage aboard the David B. We offer three very different cruises in the Inside Passage. The Canadian Inside Passage cruises are 12-day vacations that run the 690 miles between Bellingham, Washington and Ketchikan, Alaska. Our 7-day Alaska Inside Passage cruises go between Ketchikan and Juneau.
Our newest Inside Passage cruise, The Southern Inside Passage is an 11-day round trip cruise out of Bellingham, Washington and explores the many back channels from the Gulf Islands to the Broughton Archipelago and back down into the San Juan Islands.Each trip we take through the Inside Passage is unique and we have the flexibility to visit new and different locations. A few of the potential highlights of cruising the Inside Passage include watching hundreds of waterfalls cascading into calm deep-water fjords; visiting an abandoned cannery or time permitting, taking a side trip to see ancient petroglyphs and long gone fishing villages. More highlights include watching for orcas, humpback whales, porpoises, dolphins, seals and sea lions. Each night when we drop the anchor you will be treated to a wilderness experince where peace and quiet are interupted only by the high whistling call of bald eagles and the cry of gulls.
Not only are our cruises a feast for your eyes and ears, but also for your taste buds. All of your meals abord the David B are expertly prepared on the boat's wood cook stove, by the ship's chef, Christine Smith. Not only will your senses be filled with the wonder and beauty of this unique landscape, but they will also be treated to the taste and smells of fresh-baked sourdough bread and a seemingly unlimited presentation of new creations from the galley to savor. Visit our From the Galley page for a sampling of Christine's creations.
We take only small groups of six per trip. This ensures that you will have a private cruise customized just for you. We do both open reservations for singles and couples as well as offer discounts on whole boat charters.
Visit Canada's Inside Passage or Alaska's Inside Passage or The Southen Inside Passage for more sample itineraries of these cruises.
