Ketchikan
Ketchikan, Alaska
While in Ketchikan, you’ll likely want to spend some time on the water exploring the fjords and lakes embraced by Tongass National Forest, be it in a kayak, canoe or Zodiac boat. The town is known as the “Salmon Capital of the World” — and the seas are also rich in halibut, rockfish and Dungeness crab — so you might charter a fishing skiff and later grill your fresh catch over a campfire. The views from the air are equally impressive, as revealed in a seaplane flight over Misty Fjords National Monument or a helicopter ride over the 1,500-foot cascades of Mahoney Falls.
