Call us biased, but we believe Seward is the best destination in Alaska for folks with limited time and a big bucket list. Our charming seaside town is conveniently located an easy and scenic drive from Anchorage, Alaska's largest city. As a mountain town, a coastal fishing village, and the gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park, Seward is a world-class destination for people seeking meaningful connections with nature.
Whether you're pursuing a rejuvenating escape from urban life, creating lasting memories with your family, or embarking on a rugged backcountry expedition, Seward is an ideal basecamp for your Alaska adventure.
To help you make the most of your time here, we developed this travel guide to share some of our favorite places and activities with you. We hope you'll join us in this place we're lucky to call home.
