Gustavus

Gustavus is best known within Alaska for its close connection to Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. The small community lies on the north shore of Icy Strait, amid the coastal rainforest and waterways of southeastern Alaska. Nearby Bartlett Cove serves as the park’s mainland visitor-services area and a starting point for boat trips into Glacier Bay, where tidewater glaciers descend into the water. The park also protects an ancestral homeland of the Huna Tlingit, whose enduring presence is fundamental to the area’s cultural story.
