Southeast Alaska

Dive into the enchanting world of Alaska’s Inside Passage, a region sculpted by glaciers and adorned with majestic hemlock and spruce trees. Here, pristine waters, snow-capped mountains, deep fjords, and lush forested islands create an awe-inspiring landscape. With its mild, maritime climate, this area is a haven for bald eagles, sea lions, porpoises, and majestic whales.

Much of Southeast Alaska is part of the Tongass National Forest, a colossal 16.8 million-acre rainforest. Glacier Bay National Park is home to 16 active tidewater glaciers, while Misty Fjords National Monument near Ketchikan boasts dramatic 3,000-foot cliffs rising from pristine ocean channels.

Explore the charming coastal communities, each rich in history and Native traditions. Juneau, the capital city, has its roots in the Gold Rush era, while Sitka was once the capital of Russian America. Petersburg is steeped in Norwegian heritage, and Skagway keeps the Gold Rush spirit alive with its “Days of ’98.” Ketchikan proudly hosts the world’s largest collection of totem poles, and in Haines, a Native cultural center resides in the historic Port Chilkoot.
