What to do and see in Alaska, United States: The Best Islands

January 10, 2022 Nobuko Falco

Alaska is divided into five regions: far north, interior, southwest, south central, and inside passage. Although it takes a long time to see the entire state, you can travel through the regions by boat, car, bus, or plane. Hike through the mountains, or venture out on a deep sea fishing or whale watching excursion. Get in touch with nature by camping in the wilderness, or experience your preferred degree of class and luxury in the beautiful, active cities of Anchorage and Fairbanks.

Reviewed By pariluna - Jamaica, Caribbean

We took a a day cruise with lunch from Seward to cover whale spotting and other wild life spotting. Lunch was arranged at FoxIsland and we truly loved the break. View of the natural spot with its pebble beach and lake on the other was super. Food was well balanced with ample choices and kids loved it. A must have experience
