Tucked away on the coast of Mitkof Island, this fishing community is protected from major tourist traffic because the channel it sits along, Wrangell Narrows, is too shallow for cruise ships to enter. Petersburg's history is rich with Norwegian heritage, as a tradition it celebrates with the Little Norway Festival every May. From the town's harbor, visitors can see Le Conte Glacier, the continent's southernmost tidewater glacier. From shopping downtown to tide pooling at Sandy Beach to whale watching in Frederick Sound, there's plenty to do and see in Petersburg.
