Description
Santa Barbara
Embarking hybrid-powered MS Roald Amundsen in San Diego, we set course for Santa Barbara, which has a distinctly Mediterranean feel to it, from terracotta-tiled architecture to inviting beaches. Look for whales and seabirds as we sail past the surrounding Channel Islands and all along our way up the Pacific Coast.
Redwood National Park, Eureka, and San Juan Islands
Prepare to be amazed as you enter the old-growth forest of Redwood National Park. These are some of the tallest trees in the world, over 100 metres in some cases, and around 1,500 years old. You’ll also have an opportunity to walk around the seaport city of Eureka which boasts splendid Victorian architecture and do some whale-watching around the spectacular San Juan Islands near Olympic National Park.
Olympic National Park and Vancouver
You’ll explore Hurricane Ridge, the sub-alpine region of Olympic National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Go on a guided hike through the park to spot its rich flora and birdlife. Your expedition cruise rounds off in the world-class Canadian city of Vancouver.
