Cruises visiting Katmai, Alaska (United States)

To the south-west of Alaska, the peninsula breaks away from mainland and offers one of America’s  most spectacular national parks: the Katmai National Park and Preserve, sheltering 14 active volcanoes including the famous Novarupta, whose eruption in 1912 forever altered the face of the landscape. A caldera and its diaphanous lake, a dome of lava and the lunar vision of the valley of Ten Thousand Smokes are just some of the natural treasures you will behold. Don’t forget Geographic Bay Harbor, an excellent lookout point for kodiaks, majestic Alaskan brown bears that can grow up to 3 metres high and weigh half a ton. Nature of titanic proportions abounds.
