magnificent eagles
Appreciate NATURAL WILDLIFE ON the lake
Every year, hundreds of American Bald Eagles visit Lake Coeur d’Alene on their annual migration. They come to us from Canada and Alaska as they seek milder climate for the winter. Once here, they like to congregate at the lake’s northern end to feed on lake-bound salmon. Their primary meal is the Kokanee salmon, a landlocked sockeye that thrives in the lake and its tributaries. As they spawn and reach the end of their life cycle, they become an ideal food for the Eagles during this time of year.
For an up-close and personal look, take one of the Lake Coeur d’Alene Cruise Boats to Wolf Lodge Bay. It’s an awe-inspiring sight to see these magnificent birds in the wild from the comfort of a cruise boat.

educational eagle cruises
Perfect for School Trips
Lake Coeur d’Alene Cruises offers cruises for every occasion, even education!
Every December and January, hundreds of Bald Eagles arrive from Canada and even as far away as Alaska, seeking milder climates for the winter. Once here, they congregate on the north shore where they feed on their favorite meal - Kokanee salmon. Kokanee is a landlocked sockeye that thrives in the lake and its tributaries. As they spawn and reach the end of their life cycle during the winter, they become an ideal food for the eagles.
CDA Cruises offers eagle watching cruises to students and classrooms looking to learn more about these majestic birds. Our cruises will take you towards Wolf Lodge Bay where you’ll get up close to the Bald Eagles. You’ll have the option of watching a DVD presentation on board as you catch glimpses of them in the trees and if you’re lucky, you might even have one swoop over the boat or the water in front of you!
For students and teachers alike, this cruise opportunity is awe-inspiring. To learn more, please contact us today!
