Gustavus

Overview

Introduction

A tiny fishing town just a four-and-a-half hour ferry or short flight from Juneau, Gustavus is a quiet little place filled with art galleries, wildflowers, and sweeping views of snowcapped peaks and Icy Strait, on which it sits. It's also the gateway to Glacier Bay National Park, an incredibly scenic bay filled with calving tidewater glaciers, marine life and adventure opportunities. It's a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the largest Biosphere Reserves in the world. For information on Glacier Bay National Park, visit http://www.nps.gov/glba/index.htm.
