Cruises visiting Kodiak Island (United States)

Between the midnight blue of the ocean and the intense green of the vegetation, the depth of the colours on Kodiak Island is both striking and captivating. This mountainous stretch of land, covered in dense forests and carved by the bays and fjords that score its shoreline, is renowned for its population of brown bears, called Kodiak bears. Travellers come to this place to observe its wildlife. A hike in Fort Abercrombie State Historical Park will offer breathtaking panoramas of the stunning landscapes of Alaska and reveal its history. Due to the island’s strategic position, the historic ruins of a World War II coastal defence installation can be found there. Visiting the Baranov and Alutiiq museums will also be an opportunity to learn more about the history of this American state, where Russian colonies were once established and which has always been the land of the indigenous peoples of Alaska.
