Sitka
Sitka, Alaska, is a stunningly beautiful destination for travelers seeking breathtaking nature and new experiences. Sitka is on Baranof Island in southeast Alaska, nestled against the dramatic backdrop of the coastal mountains and Sitka Sound, making it incredibly photogenic. Sitka was founded in 1799 by Russian traders, who named it New Archangel. To this day, there remains a unique blend of Russian and Native Tlingit culture that adds to Sitka’s vibrant atmosphere, with festivals drawing in visitors from far and wide for incredible music, art shows, parades, lectures, and wildlife viewing. As much as Sitka has to offer culturally, it is hard to beat the potential for outdoor adventure—with world-class fishing in picturesque bays and magical fjords!
