Ketchikan, Destination in Alaska

Kayaking through Ketchikan

KETCHIKAN:

Alaska's first city is also known as the "Salmon Capital of the World." Built out over the water and climbing weathered stairways, Ketchikan clings to the shores of Tongass Narrows and drapes the mountains with a cheerful air.

Besides the main attractions - Creek Street, the Tongass Historical Museum, Totem Bight and Saxman Village - there's one other thing we highly recommend you do. A floatplane flightseeing trip to breathtaking Misty Fjords National Monument is a transforming adventure not to be missed.

The souvenir photos you'll take from the pontoons of the plane are worth the trip alone. Or go on a Ketchikan shopping spree. There are numerous galleries exhibiting Native Art and works by talented local artisans. Jewelry and souvenir shops line the docks. And you can find everything from locally canned and smoked salmon to Russian nesting dolls.
