Alaska Marine Highway Ferry Information

Known as the Alaska Marine Highway, Alaska's ferry system for both travelers and their vehicles, offers extensive travel throughout certain coastal regions of Alaska. It is unlike most ferry service you may be familiar with. Be sure to study the scale of any maps you may be referring to as you plot your travels. Alaska is a huge state and distances can be deceiving. The ferry no longer serves the town of Seward, so it is not the best way to get to Angels Rest on Resurrection Bay.
  • The Alaska Marine Highway system offers ferry service in 4 different coastal regions throughout the state, but no longer serves Seward.  The nearest ferry terminal to Seward is located in Whittier.
    • Inside Passage/Southeast (Bellingham WA to Yakatat, AK)
    • Southeast "feeder" communities (Angoon, Hoonah, Pelican, etc)
    • Southwest (Kodiak, Homer, Prince William Sound communities)
    • Aleutian Islands and the Alaska Peninsula (Dutch Harbor, Cold Bay, Atkutan, etc.)
      • This page on the official Alaska Marine Ferry System shows maps of each of the regions with ferry stops marked
  • You may travel as a pedestrian or with a vehicle
    • One popular tourist route is to drive to Valdez then take the ferry from Valdez to Whittier, from there it's a short drive south to Seward 
  • For longer trips in certain regions cabins may be available
  • Visit the Wikipedia page about the Alaska Marine Highway

There are so many things to do in Seward, Alaska and the surrounding area, from simple wildlife watching and hiking to boat tours into the Kenai Fjords National Park to see glaciers and wildlife, that we encourage you to stay at least 3 nights so that you can take advantage of the numerous activities that make Seward such a special place to visit.  The mountains surrounding Resurrection Bay provide spectacular scenery and they are alive with wildlife, as is the bay itself.  The wildlife of the area includes bald eagles, bear (both black and brown), mountain goats, dall sheep, sea lions, dall porpoise, harbor seal, sea otters, humpback whales, sea birds & ducks too numerous to list! Seward itself is a charming town with two distinct areas of enjoyment.  Downtown Seward offers a number of special businesses.  The Seward Small Boat Harbor is a delightful place to walk around on a nice day (with an ice cream cone from the Harbor Creamery, if you like!), and the Alaska SeaLife Center and Seward Museum, or any of several coffee shops, are perfect places to spend a rainy afternoon. Since all of our waterfront lodging accommodations (cabins, view rooms) have kitchenettes, you won't have to eat all your meals out, but when you want to, there are a number of excellent restaurants in Seward Alaska. If you've never stayed in a small "ma & pa" accommodation, or if you normally stay in a hotel or motel, or bed and breakfast, you'll want to come stay with us and experience something special! We'd love to have you as our guests; we'll do everything we can to make sure you have a comfortable stay!
