The Port of Petersburg is another all day adventure while on your vacation. This is a must see town that can be reached by the local island ferry system, by air or by sea, although most big ships cannot navigate through the Wrangell Narrows. If you want to see some of the densest population of Humpback Whales, Petersburg has them. This bustling fishing town is also home to artiest that show off their talents in the sidewalks, along buildings and in some other surprising areas, come see for yourself!
It is recommended that you pre-book your activities. We highly recommend these "must-do" things while you are visiting this unique town.

My wife and I honeymooned in Alaska and had the most breathtaking experience on the Prince William Sound cruise. The water was incredibly calm, and the glaciers magnificent. Dinner was also fantastic.
