Misty Fjords Flightseeing
Soaring above the Misty Fjords is one of the most unforgettable ways to experience Alaska's untamed beauty. Step aboard a legendary DeHavilland Beaver or Otter floatplane and take to the skies for an aerial adventure over 2.3 million acres of protected wilderness. Towering granite cliffs, glacial-carved fjords, serene alpine lakes, and cascading waterfalls stretch as far as the eye can see.
Your journey begins with a convenient pick-up just steps from the cruise docks, followed by a short transfer to the floatplane base. After a brief orientation, you’ll lift off from the water and head deep into the Alaskan backcountry. Throughout the flight, your experienced bush pilot provides live narration via noise-canceling headsets, offering insight into the landscape, history, and local wildlife. With a guaranteed window seat for every passenger, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted views throughout the flight.
The exact route may vary based on weather, making each flight unique. You might head south for sights like New Eddystone Rock and Big Goat Lake, or venture north toward Neets Bay and Bell Island Hot Springs. Both routes showcase stunning natural wonders and offer excellent chances to spot bald eagles, mountain goats, moose, and even brown or black bears.
Whether it's your first time in Alaska or you're returning for more adventure, the Misty Fjords Flightseeing Tour delivers a once-in-a-lifetime perspective on the region’s raw, breathtaking beauty.
*With respect for full transparency, we want to let our guests know that there have been tragic fatal accidents on the Misty Fjords flight in years past. While small aircraft is the main mode of transportation in Alaska, there will always be risks. Our operating partner, Taquan Air, takes every precaution to make the most informed decision about flight conditions for that day and will cancel the tour if weather poses any threat. Their pilots are extensively trained, monitor weather conditions closely, and fly with at least 4 miles of visibility. The company has also voluntarily adopted safety practices beyond those required by federal standards. *
