The Original Juneau Salmon Bake

Overview

You really have to try a salmon bake at one of your port stops. The salmon, which you will see spawning on every river from mid-June through September, are fresh, thick, and delicious. For those of you who prefer other choices, you will also find BBQ chicken. The entrees are accompanied by a host of salads, including Caesar, coleslaw, rice pilaf, and BBQ beans with reindeer sausage, as well as dessert, and, as this is all-you-can-eat, you may try everything more than once.

You will be outdoors, but in a protected area, which will allow you to roast marshmallows over an open fire. Music will accompany your meal whether you dine at lunch or dinner. And you will be able to explore a little before or after your meal, as the Salmon Creek waterfall and the Wagner Mine are right nearby.

This is a great value, as the ride up is narrated and you will be going through Juneau proper. At the end of your tour you will return to your cruise pier.
