As someone that was born and raised in Alaska and a commercial fisherman in the gulf and Bering sea/Russia, I've seen a lot of coast. If you are taking about a cruise from Bellingham Washington to Alaska, it is incredibly beautiful and something I recommend often. Having large boats in Alaska means taking them to shipyards in Seattle for maintenence in off seasons and also because all large fisheries related companies are headquartered in Seattle. I have been up and down the inside passage many times from Seattle to Alaska and back and it's an amazing experience.
