"On the whale watching tour we were able to get MUCH
closer than the cruise ship whale watching boat tour, much to the envy of
some of our fellow passengers as we learned later while conversing with
them!!! We captured some phenomenal video of 3 whales breaching at
once...and at a 'natural' close-up view, not zoomed in."

Ketchikan is well
known as the salmon capital of the world and a paradise for sport
fishermen and naturalists alike. During the summer months, the town
bustles with visitors from all over the world. While the rustic
boardwalk on Creek Street preserves a distinct historic feel, the town
hums with new construction to keep up with the ever-expanding wave of
tourism.
Ketchikan has a
population of 14,500 and is built along a steep hillside, with sections of
the town built right over the water on pilings. An outstanding collection
of totem poles make a visit to Ketchikan essential for anyone interested
in Native art. Ketchikan's name supposedly comes from the native term
"Katch Kanna", which roughly translates: "spread wings of a thundering
eagle" and rightly named, for you only need to look along the water line
and you're likely to see many bald eagles on waterside perches.
