Alaska 5-day
Alaska 5-day Adventure
July 31-August 5, 2026
$4000 per person
We are beyond excited to invite you to Alaska during our favorite time of year to explore the hidden gem of the tight knit fisherman community of Cordova. Surrounded by the Chugach Mountains and Prince William Sound, Cordova boasts stunning landscapes with glaciers, forests, and abundant wildlife. We are so lucky to have our friend Nelly hand of Drifters Fish as our local guide. Nelly will show us around her quaint home town rich in history, vibrant art, and fresh seafood. She grew up in a fishing family and now works alongside her husband Michael in the wild fisheries sustainably harvesting salmon, spot prawns, tanner crab and sablefish. We will spend 5 days hiking, foraging, fishing and lots of beachside meals cooked over a fire.

Cordova, Alaska is a rugged, sea-focused community where some of the world’s most sought-after seafood is caught, including the rich, ruby-red Copper River salmon. Its isolated location—reachable only by air or ferry—helps keep local fisheries healthy and tightly managed. The town’s small-boat fleet is known for meticulous, sustainable harvesting, and the surrounding Copper River Delta teems with wildlife, making Cordova both a culinary treasure and a natural wonder.
