Sleeping accommodations for up to six guests are in in three guest staterooms (13K JPG.).There are two heads (marine toilets) and a shower.
Lots of deck space gives us plenty of room to launch an expedition in one of our shore boats or sea kayaks, land one of those
giant halibut, enjoy a sunset crabfeed
or just relax and watch the whales and glaciers
.
Every
evening we anchor in a different protected cove
(23K

Here's what former guests have to say:
"My husband, his parents, and I spent a wonderful week aboard the M/V Heron with Scott and Julie. Their knowledge of Southeastern (Alaska) waters, the fish and the wildlife made the trip much more meaningful. Likewise, their obvious competence on both land and sea meant we never worried about our safety. Their respect for the environment was communicated thoroughly, yet our comfort level was much higher than expected-we don't eat that well at home!My in-laws went on to other more conventional tourist experiences in other parts of Alaska, and reported nothing as rewarding as that week on the Heron. We can wholeheartedly recommend Scott and Julie's Alaska Passages to a wide range of ages and interests" Suze, Seattle
