The day begins with a scenic 45-minute boat trip to the delightful fishing village of Sedovia, set against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains. Once a Russian fur trading post, today visitors can enjoy browsing the colorful shops, meeting Alaskan Native villagers, viewing the unique life-size woodcarvings, and visiting the historic Russian orthodox church. At one time Seldovia was home to over 2,000 residents but today fewer than 300 Dena’ina Indian and Suspiaq/Alitiiq Eskimo remain.

There is an optional hike along the Otter-Bahn Trail through ancient spruce forest, lined with berry bushes, which leads to wonderful views of Kachemak bay. Other additional options include berry picking, ice cream and lunch at a restaurant of your choice.

Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started exploring the world at a young age and even earned a bachelor’s degree in Travel and Tourism. I love the thrill of discovering new places, but I also deeply appreciate the value of rest and true vacation time. Over the years, I’ve built up quite a few stories, from getting too close to a moose in Denali to witnessing a volcanic eruption in Hawaii. And yes, I once traveled to Australia and New Zealand with my entire extended family, all 58 of us!
