Savvy explorers know that traveling in April and May equates to lower fares, fewer crowds, temperate weather and lots of wildlife sightings.

Cruising Alaska in Spring — Makes Cents for these 12 Reasons
Megan Collier at UnCruise shares 12 reasons to cruise Alaska’s Inside Passage in April and May:
- It’s the driest time of year
There’s no question, it’s sunnier and drier in the spring – rainfall increases the farther into the season you get.
- Most sunshine of any time of year
April and May get 200 to 250 hours of sunshine on average.
- Northern Lights
The odds of seeing the Northern Lights during the cruise season are best in April.
- Glacier Bay National Park
Unlike the big ships, UnCruise does more than sail through Glacier Bay – in April and May, passengers can hike and kayak within the park.
- Mild temperatures
With southeast Alaska’s temperate climate, the average highs in the spring are in the 50s and 60s Fahrenheit; August averages 63 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Whales are already in Alaska in the spring
See humpback and orca in April and May; and maybe even migrating gray whales near Sitka – they are gone by June.
- Bear viewing is fantastic
Bears come out of hibernation in the spring, and they are hungry, searching the shoreline for clams, mussels, and barnacles. No binoculars needed!
- Best variety of bird populations
In the spring, bird populations are migrating in both directions, and we see more types of birds during this season.
- See Alaskan towns as the locals see them
Explore Juneau, Ketchikan, and/or Sitka before the peak season crowds descend.
- Alaska’s Inside Passage to ourselves
Alaska is known as the Great Land among other reasons for its sweeping landscapes. Imagine just your group in exploring the stunning landscapes of Alaska, from hiking and kayaking.
- Local shows, events, & festivals
Local events and shows tend to appear in the spring and fall when there are not so many tourists in town, like the Alaska Folk Festival in Juneau.
- Best value pricing of the season
UnCruise sailings, not to mention hotel stays and airfare, are priced lower in April and May than other times of the year.
