"While you won't find any rapids or whitewater off the shores of Glacier Bay National Park, you will spot glaciers, puffins, sea lions, and even orca or humpback whales. If you're interested in booking an overnight trip during the summer (a must), make sure to register for a free permit." - Travel + Leisure Editors
