What to wear on Seward boat tours: Seward, Alaska is often referred to as a ‘Temperate Rain Forest’ and for good reason, although we do get several beautiful sunny and warm days each season. We suggest you dress in layers so that you can adjust for the weather of the moment. A waterproof outer layer is recommended. A light rain jacket and rain pants over a couple of inner layers is going to give you the flexibility for whatever you encounter
