Ketchikan

Our first port was Ketchikan, the salmon capital of the world! We went canoeing on a beautiful lake up in the mountains, ate smoked salmon, and visited historic Creek Street. Creek Street was once the city's redlight district during the its mining days, now is a big tourist sightseeing spot.
Ketchikan was our favorite port. If you ever have the chance, go there! The city is actually an island and can only be reached by plane or boat, but the scenery is stunning as you sail into Ketchikan.
