Yes Bay
Nestled amidst
the Tongass National Forest, Yes Bay, Alaska is a sight
for sore eyes. Take a break from the ship and explore the surrounding
wilderness. Hike through lush trails teeming with wildlife, or rent a
kayak and paddle across the crystal-clear waters, keeping an
eye out for seals and bald eagles. While shopping options might be limited at
the port itself, the nearby town of Ketchikan, accessible by
ferry or scenic seaplane ride, boasts a treasure trove of local stores. Here, you can
snag a handcrafted souvenir from the Ketchikan Totem Heritage
Center or indulge in some retail therapy at the lively Creek Street. After a day
of exploration, treat yourself to a delicious seafood dinner at the Ketchikan Fish
Market, savoring the freshest catches Alaska has to offer.
Nightlife in Yes Bay is low-key, but you might find
friendly locals to share stories with over a beer at the cozy Yes Bay
Lodge.
