Looking for a unique island escape? You don’t need a passport to visit one of the world’s smallest islands in the U.S. Fox Island, tucked in Resurrection Bay, Seward, Alaska, is just over three miles long and two miles wide, making it a quiet retreat away from crowds.
The only way to reach Fox Island is by glacier ferry, which is an adventure in itself. On the way, you might spot sea otters, puffins, and humpback whales!
Guests stay at the Kenai Fjords Wilderness Lodge, which has eight cozy cabins accommodating four people each. You can choose ocean or lagoon-view rooms with comfy beds, leather couches, and porch chairs to enjoy the serene views.
Fox Island is perfect for outdoor fun. You can hike, paddle in a canoe or kayak, or explore with the lodge’s naturalist. There’s also a wood-fired sauna you can use to relax after a day of adventure.
Meals are included and made with fresh, seasonal ingredients from the Pacific Northwest, served with stunning views of the bay. Most stays are 2-3 nights, but longer stays of 4-5 nights are available if you want extra time to unwind and enjoy the island.
When your stay ends, hop back on the glacier ferry for one last magical ride, often waved off by the local wildlife. Fox Island is a small, peaceful escape that feels like stepping into another world.
