The only privately-owned cruise destination in Alaska,[1][2] it is located on Chichagof Island and named after the nearby Icy Strait.

Huna Totem Corporation is owned by approximately 1,350 Alaskan Natives with aboriginal ties to Hoonah and the Glacier Bay area.[3] Many of them are of the Tlingit people,[1] and "all profits directly [support] the community of Hoonah, Alaska’s largest Native Tlingit village".[4]
