We also saw about 6/7 pairs of puffins in Glacier Bay (they were always in pairs, which made it a little easier to spot them) Some floated in the water and a couple were flying. It was the one thing my husband really wanted to see on that trip. I think a lot depends on the time of year you are cruising. When the Park Rangers board ask them when the best time/place to see them might be and make sure you carry your binoculars with you.
