Adventure or bust! With a morning full of true expedition, National Geographic Quest anchored within the boundaries of Security Bay State Marine Park on Kuiu Island. Known for its history of logging, this protected area is an excellent site for explorations by land and by sea. In a downpour appropriate for the temperate rainforest, guests took to kayaks and paddleboards and played with harbor seals and sea otters. In the forest, guests followed game trails created by black bears and moose, moving through bushes and over logs. In the afternoon, special guests from the Alaska Whale Foundation were picked up in Baranof Warm Springs Bay. The foundation is Lindblad Expedition’s regional partner, and two student researchers shared what our Conservation Fund has helped them discover about our humpback and killer whale populations.
