Seward
Welcome to Seward
Seward Alaska, one of the state’s oldest communities, sits at the head of Resurrection Bay on the south coast of the Kenai Peninsula. This thriving fishing village of 3,000 is the historic head of the original Iditarod Trail, and both the Seward Highway and the Alaska Railroad provide connections to Anchorage 2.5 hours directly to the north. As the Gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park, Seward bustles with summer tourists enjoying outdoor sports like hiking, kayaking, river rafting, and dog sledding. The busy harbor is a cruise ship port and the launch point for fjord and glacier tours, whale-watching cruises, and fishing trips to the rich halibut and salmon grounds.
