Witnessing Massive Glacier Calving at Hubbard Glacier! | Viking Venus Alaska Cruise Excursion 🏔️❄️
Get ready for an up-close look at one of Alaska’s most spectacular natural wonders—Hubbard Glacier! On my Viking Venus Alaska cruise, I boarded a small-boat catamaran shore excursion to navigate closer to the face of North America’s largest tidewater glacier. Standing nearly 300 feet tall above the waterline and over 6 miles wide, Hubbard Glacier is an absolute powerhouse of nature. In this video, I take you right along the icy waters of Disenchantment Bay for front-row seats to the action. You’ll hear the "white thunder" echo across the water and catch thrilling, real-time moments of massive ice chunks breaking off and crashing into the sea (glacier calving)! ✨ TRAVEL TIPS FOR HUBBARD GLACIER: Take the Catamaran Excursion: While cruise ships offer incredible views, getting on a smaller catamaran allows you to safely weave through the ice field and get much closer to the glacier face! Listen for "White Thunder": Before you see the ice fall, you’ll hear a deep booming sound—keep your camera ready when you hear it! Layer Up: Even on sunny days, the wind coming off the ice field is brisk. Pack a windproof jacket, gloves, and a warm hat. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW THE JOURNEY: If you enjoyed this Alaska cruise vlog, please give it a Like 👍 and Subscribe for more cruise reviews, travel guides, and excursion tips! #HubbardGlacier #VikingVenus #VikingCruises #AlaskaCruise #GlacierCalving #AlaskaExcursion #CruiseVlog #AlaskaTravel #TidewaterGlacier #MyVikingJourney #Crystalvenustravels Audio Track: 'In The Silent World' by Ashot Danielyan.
