While not a regular destination point, our Alaskan yacht charters can make special arrangements for guests to meet Taconite at a pre-arranged port for spectacular cruising of the Alaska panhandle.

The Alaskan panhandle is the coast of the American state of Alaska, just west of the province of British Columbia, Canada. In many places, the international border runs along the crest of the Pacific Range of mountains. The Panhandle includes the Tongass National Forest, Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska's Inside Passage, and a myriad of islands which is beautiful for a yacht charter.

Wildlife seen while on our classic Alaskan yacht charters include grizzly bears, black bears, wolves, Sitka deer, humpback whales, orcas, five species of salmon, bald eagles, harlequin ducks, scoters, and murrelets.
Major cities are Juneau and Ketchikan. Other towns are Sitka, Petersburg, Metlakatla, Haines, Wrangell, Yakutat. There are many tiny towns, such as Pelican, Tenakee Springs, Port Protection, Hyder, and Gustavus.
