Gustavus by Glacier Bay is nestled in one of the most breathtaking locations in Alaska, surrounded by natural beauty on all sides. The town stretches across a flat, tranquil area, with the majestic Fairweather Range to the west and the Chilkat Range to the east, their snow-capped peaks providing a stunning backdrop. A charming sandy beach separates the town from the crystal-clear waters of Icy Strait, making it the perfect gateway to the awe-inspiring Glacier Bay National Park. Glacier Bay is a true gem of the Inside Passage, forming part of a 25-million-acre World Heritage Site — one of the largest international protected areas on the planet. From towering mountain summits to pristine coastal waters, Glacier Bay offers boundless opportunities for adventure and awe. Its remarkable geology, abundant wildlife, and incredible scenery — including soaring peaks and majestic tidewater glaciers — set the stage for unforgettable outdoor experiences. This unique wilderness sanctuary features not only towering glaciers but also snow-capped mountain ranges, deep fjords, freshwater rivers, and lakes. A marine and terrestrial paradise awaits. Just minutes from Gustavus, Point Adolphus offers some of the world’s best whale-watching opportunities, particularly for humpback whales — a major attraction for visitors to the Glacier Bay/Gustavus area. While there are no roads into Glacier Bay National Park, access to this remote and pristine region is made easy with convenient air connections and waterway transportation from Juneau, Skagway, and Haines. Whether by air or sea, your adventure to this incredible destination is just around the corner!
