Scenic Chignik

Chignik is located at the Unalaska peninsula and is one of the most beautiful small settlements in Alaska. Go ashore and explore the fishing village, where you will be warmly welcomed. Salmon comes to the rivers in the Chignik area to spawn and if you’re lucky, you might discover the fish jumping upstream.
