Hello
To help with your stay in Petersburg, the

Here's a taste:
​
"Petersburg is located among forested islands and mountains of Alaska’s beautiful Inside Passage on the northern tip of Mitkof Island. It’s a small, vibrant town with about 3,100 permanent residents, located in the heart of the Tongass National Forest. We are an island community that continues to make a living from the sea. You’ll find artistic designs precast into the sidewalks and Rosemaling (Norwegian flower painting) on the fronts of retail stores and residences. The influence of local artists and craftspeople is seen in the murals, totems, and sculptures along downtown streets. Seek Alaska Tours is home to 'Alaska's Little Norway', with 7 generations of experience and love of Petersburg.

Our island town is located on Frederick Sound near the summer feeding grounds of hundreds of humpback whales. The Stikine-LeConte Wilderness Area, with the spectacular LeConte Glacier calving off tons of bright blue icebergs, is just a short boat ride away. Visit a place that still holds on to its small-town roots. Leave the crowds behind, and take a trip to this thriving fishing village with strong Norwegian and Tlingit heritage. Visit with our hardworking and friendly residents and learn about our abundant marine life."
