Join us for Day 4 of our 7-night Alaska cruise on the MSC Poesia as we spend an incredible day at Icy Strait Point, Alaska! 🚢 After a beautiful sail into Icy Strait Point aboard the MSC Poesia, we head ashore to explore the historic cannery, shops, waterfront, and Hoonah Veterans Memorial Sea Walk. The biggest surprise of the day comes when a large group of humpback whales appears incredibly close to shore, giving us some of the most exciting whale sightings of our entire Alaska cruise. We even spot the whales again later in the day as they make their way back past Icy Strait Point. 🐋 Back aboard the MSC Poesia, we have a fantastic evening with dinner at Il Palladio Restaurant followed by the Total Divas production show in Teatro Carlo Felice. Tomorrow, we’ll sail through Endicott Arm to view Dawes Glacier before making our way to Juneau for the afternoon. If you’re planning an MSC Poesia Alaska cruise or visiting Icy Strait Point, we hope you’re able to have just as memorable an experience as we did. 🏔️🐋🛳️ Cruise Details: 🚢 Ship: MSC Poesia 🛳 Cruise Line: MSC Cruises 📍 Departure Port: Seattle, Washington 🏔️ Itinerary: 7-Night Alaska Cruise featuring Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier ⚓ Ports of Call: Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point, Juneau & Victoria 📽️ MSC Poesia: Sail Away from Seattle - Day 1 https://youtu.be/QOROOzXwsRs 📽️ MSC Poesia: Sea Day & Gala Night - Day 2 https://youtu.be/1A8VdAmL7_k 📽️ MSC Poesia: Exploring Ketchikan & Creek Street - Day 3 https://youtu.be/RJ1kKnUGL6U 📽️ MSC Poesia: Icy Strait Point & So Many Whales - Day 4 Vlog https://youtu.be/48vefC9Lvno 📽️ MSC Poesia Aft Balcony Cabin Tour: Stateroom 11250 https://youtu.be/2zU-h8ofhwY 📽️ 10 Questions Before Sailing MSC Poesia (Answered!) https://youtu.be/S4vWBFd5_Sg 🛒 Book a Cruise on the MSC Poesia (MSC Website) - https://sovrn.co/1fy0xqf 🛒 Resort For A Day - Port Excursions - https://lddy.no/1maq3 ⭐ Follow us on Social Media ⭐ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/northernvikingexplorer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NorthernVikingExplorer TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@northernvikingexplorer Link Tree - https://linktr.ee/NorthernVikingExplorer Website: https://northernvikingexplorer.com/ 🛒 Our Favorite Cruise & Travel Gear on Amazon (Affiliate) Light Duty - DIYMAG Magnetic Hooks 30lbs (3 Pack) https://amzn.to/3T9NcrQ Light Duty - DIYMAG Magnetic Hooks 30lbs (10 Pack) https://amzn.to/3HxlHpz Heavy Duty - Neosmuk Magnetic Hooks 100lbs (5 Pack) https://amzn.to/3HIyxRQ European Travel Plug Adapter to USB-C https://amzn.to/4bczGgt Gonex 30L Ultra Lightweight Packable Backpack https://amzn.to/4v3IvBe INIU Portable Charger https://amzn.to/417MTSv Lamicall Phone Waterproof Pouch (2-Pack) https://amzn.to/4vbn5Bn Cruise Luggage Tags https://amzn.to/4gZbfH2 8 Pack Silicone Luggage Tags https://amzn.to/4vIlPXw PackTowl Personal Quick Dry Microfiber Towel https://amzn.to/3JvOlVO Level8 Grace 3-Piece Luggage Set: https://amzn.to/4e9GagH Level8 Compression Packing Cubes https://amzn.to/3HtpRyQ ⌚Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 00:37 Breakfast in the Main Dining Room 01:13 Disembarking at Icy Strait Point 03:20 Walking to & Exploring the Cannery 06:26 A Pod of Humpback Whales Close to Shore! 07:08 Lil’ Gen’s Mini Donuts 08:45 Hoonah Veterans Memorial Sea Walk 10:05 The Humpback Whales Return! 12:01 Exploring the Shoreline & Nature Trail 15:12 Wilderness Landing 16:16 Riding the Transporter Gondola 18:29 Dinner at Il Palladio Restaurant 21:58 Evening Entertainment - Total Divas 23:45 Tomorrow’s Plans - Endicott Arm, Dawes Glacier & Juneau 25:06 Final Thoughts DISCLAIMER: This video and description contain affiliate links.
