Alaska Packing List
Recommended Items
All items are available to purchase from Seabourn Adventure Outfitter.
COMPLIMENTARY
A Waterproof Jacket is included with your voyage and will be available for you on the ship. Check your pre-voyage email for reserving your size.
Neoprene paddling gloves for kayaking.
Clothing
Long underwear: Breathable, mid-weight thermal tops and bottoms provide warmth without bulk. We suggest traveling with two sets.
Expedition tops and bottoms: This layer is worn over your base layer and under your waterproof pants and jacket. You may wish to choose expedition weight thermals or comfortable, insulating shirts and pants made of “state of the art” performance fabrics that move and flex with you. Warmth and insulation are key for this layer.
Lofted “puffy” vest: While your complimentary PolarShield Parka Set includes a jacket insulated with Primaloft, you’ll appreciate the versatility of a similarly lofted vest. A flexible piece to wear onboard, on deck, or as an added layer during times of “exceptional” weather.
Waterproof pants: These are a must-have. Waterproof is essential (but not breathable in this instance - you don’t want moisture seeping through the fabric’s pores while seated in the Zodiac or sitting in a snowpack onshore). Loose fitting and wide leg width are preferred (without zippers so you can easily tuck them into your knee-high waterproof boots).
In addition, for your convenience as part for the experience boots, walking sticks, binoculars.
Accessories
Waterproof Hiking boots and trail shoes: Comfortable hiking boots or trail shoes with arch support.
Gloves or Mittens: Insulating waterproof gloves or mittens with removable liners that can be worn alone.
Socks: Walking socks of wool or wool blend.
Rain hat: Waterproof with a wide brim and a chin drawstring.
Windproof Beanie
Backpack: Lightweight, waterproof backpack for carrying and protecting your items as you go ashore. If you have camera equipment, pack them in seal-proof, waterproof sacks and cases, then carry them all in a waterproof pack.
Gear
Trekking poles: A lightweight, collapsible telescopic walking staff for ice, snow and rugged terrain. Recommended for optional excursions.
Waterproof sacks and cases: Heavy-duty sacks and cases specifically designed to store and protect your phone, camera, film, binoculars and more.
Binoculars: Compact, high-performance binoculars. A pair of “8 x 26” (8 power magnification and 26mm objective diameter) is recommended.
Also recommended: Sunglasses with U.V. filter protection; sunscreen, lip balm & sunscreen.
