Due in Seward area June 2-5th for our first visit. Got a fishing tour booked. Looking at a few hikes. Planning to camp. Protips welcome. Weather, preferred gas stations, must see stops, fave food, and doggy friendly spots.
We fly in in 8 days. I’ve been watching the weather for several weeks and it looks like it has been and will continue to be rain all day every day. Is that the reality on the ground?
I remember other destinations have sometimes looked like horrendous weather on the app but the reality was that most of the day was great with maybe a small sprinkle here and there.
Just curious about what we should be expecting for our 5 days in Seward. It will be the last 5 days of May and I thought I read that May was typically pretty dry! I’d appreciate any insight from people who are there now!
I absolutely hate it for the city that the ships are diverting at the start of the season due to the port being unfinished. We just learned yesterday that our sailing is going to Whittier instead.
We have everything booked for a great stay after the cruise in Seward so we are still coming down, but so many others will have to skip Seward entirely because of this. Lots of lost tourism dollars and I’m sorry for that.
Looking forward to turning heads kennels, major marine, the sea life center… and food! Just sad there won’t be more people spending money in town with me. Hope it gets fixed soon.
Me and a couple girl friends are planning a weekend trip to Seward, are there any fun quirky bars we should check out? I know the options are limited out there, but even a fun hole in the wall would be cool!
My buddies and I have a backpacking trip scheduled for next week. Half of the trip we plan to spend in Denali, we're looking for some nice trails with little snow to camp near Seward / Anchorage for the first half. We value views, greenery, fishing, and wildlife. Thanks!
