Haines, Alaska — The Cruise Port Most Ships Skip (Is It Worth It?)
Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
It's a little town with no crowds, no souvenir gauntlet, just mountains, small town streets, and more bald eagles than anywhere in America.
We weren't going to go in, but I'm glad we did. And it supports local business.
For us, we definitely thought it was worth it and we thoroughly enjoyed walking around this little town.

Most Alaska cruise ships sail right past Haines — so is it worth your port day? We spent a day in this tiny off-the-beaten-path town, and this is our honest take. We're Judy & Marc, and this is Part 2 of our 3-part Alaska Ports series from our 9-night Oceania Riviera cruise. Haines is small, quiet, and the bald eagle capital of America — the Alaska where locals outnumber tourists. In this video: what the town is actually like, what we did (we chose to explore on our own — though there are excursions you can book here too), who would love this port, and our honest verdict. ▶️ Subscribe and hit the 🔔 — Sitka is next, and that's where the itinerary gets its official score! #HainesAlaska #Haines #AlaskaCruise #AlaskaPorts #CruisePort #OceaniaRiviera #AlaskaTravel #BaldEagles #TwinPalmsTV ✅ Want to join one of our group cruises? https://www.twinpalmsworldtravel.com/grouptravel 🛳️Looking to book a cruise: Fill out my quick travel form here: https://www.twinpalmsworldtravel.com/cruise-travel 📅 Ready to chat 1:1 and start planning?
