Seabourn Encore Heads to Alaska in 2026

Seabourn has announced that Seabourn Encore will sail in Alaska and British Columbia for the first time during its 2026 summer season. Between May and September, the ultra-luxury, all-suite vessel will operate 17 seven-day cruises and one eight-day sailing, with options to combine itineraries into 14- or 15-day voyages.

The itineraries will visit iconic destinations such as Juneau, Ketchikan, Alert Bay, the Inian Islands, and Glacier Bay National Park. Guests will also enjoy authentic cultural experiences in coastal towns and opportunities to explore remote waterways rich in wildlife.

“Our 2026 season offers experiences beyond the expected, bringing guests closer to Alaska’s communities and natural wonders with the comfort of Seabourn Encore,” said Mark Tamis, president of Seabourn.

Travelers can enhance their journey with Ventures by Seabourn, a program of optional, expert-led excursions, including kayaking, Zodiac tours, and wildlife viewing. Every guest will receive a custom Helly Hansen all-weather jacket, while Swarovski Optik binoculars will be available to Premium Suite guests for use throughout the voyage.

Seabourn Encore’s maiden Alaska season will also feature themed cruises. Highlights include a Summer Solstice sailing on June 19, 2026, from Juneau, timed for the longest days of the year; a Perseid Meteor Shower sailing departing Vancouver on August 7, offering the chance to witness the celestial event at sea; and holiday voyages aligned with Memorial Day and Independence Day during America’s 250th anniversary celebrations.
