For adventurous day
trips, Unga Island beckons. Here, you'll discover a fascinating petrified forest,
remnants of what was once one of the Aleutians' largest abandoned
villages, and even relics of bygone gold mines. Keep your eyes peeled for
wildlife – Unga Island boasts a thriving population of bald eagles, puffins,
cormorants, and kittiwakes.
Back in Sand Point, you can
learn more about the island's industry at Trident Seafoods' cold storage
and fish-processing plant. Peter Pan, another prominent company, also has a support facility here.
For those seeking a casual evening, Sand Point Tavern offers a friendly
atmosphere with a menu of pub fare and drinks.
