Reservations
Glacier Bay Vessel Permits and Excursion Booking
A daily boat excursion is the primary bottleneck and requires separate booking from lodging. While entry permits for private vessels are highly restricted and require a lottery system, visitors arriving by air or ferry only need to coordinate their stay at Bartlett Cove or Gustavus. Always check the official NPS site for current excursion schedules and Huna Tribal House program dates.
