From sweet seals on the docks to gorgeous orca whales swimming freely in the water, chances are that you will be blown away by all the breathtaking sights that you will see.
Upon arriving in Halibut Cove, you'll notice immense charm in every direction that you look. Kayaking around Halibut Cove is an absolute blast, while experiencing an outdoor concert on the floating amphitheater at Halibut Cove Live is one of the most fun and unique summer events that you will find in the Last Frontier.
Enjoy eating farm-to-table dishes with only the healthiest of ingredients and spend the afternoon walking the boardwalks and visiting the impressive art galleries.
On the menu you'll find creative dishes with locally sourced wild Alaska seafood favorites such as house pickled salmon. Don't forget to try the sweet and delicate local halibut caught right from the surrounding waters in the 'halibut fishing capital of the world.'
