Gaprofitt Posted December 26, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Hi all, I understand the top decks on the pearl are horrible for viewing for Alaska due to the wind partitions. How is the viewing from the lower decks and which decks have viewing? Does the lower decks wrap completely around the ship? How close can you get to the front of the ship? What rooms are closest to these decks.. Thinking poor mans balcony.. :) Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

more cruises Posted December 28, 2010 #3 Share Posted December 28, 2010 The aft of the ship has great views - see photo below. We even went up front for a while. We could see fine but the plastic panels weren't so great for photos. I just got really good at positioning the camera in the gaps. You probably won't want to stay inside (buffet restaurant) or on your balcony. It's much more fun to run around everywhere to see everything.
