Sitka Shore Excursions
Raptor Center Tours
Meet rehabilitated bald eagles and birds of prey at the Alaska Raptor Center — Sitka's essential avian wildlife experience.
The Alaska Raptor Center cares for injured eagles, hawks, owls, and falcons before returning them to the wild. Walk the rainforest boardwalk, watch flight training demonstrations, and learn about raptor rehabilitation — all within an easy shore excursion from your cruise ship.
The center is a rehabilitation facility, not a wild-eagle guarantee on the water. You will see resident birds, clinic windows, and rainforest boardwalk habitat — ideal for families and first-time Sitka visitors who want educational wildlife without a boat day.
Combine with Fortress of the Bear or Sitka National Historical Park when port time allows. Short duration keeps this option High Cruise Confidence on most Sitka calls.
