Adventures at Salmon Falls Resort in Ketchikan, Alaska

Salmon Falls Resort in Ketchikan, Alaska, the intimate full-service waterfront resort is now taking bookings for 2021 and has just launched a new series of adventures for travelers seeking customized outdoor explorations in a small, private setting. The resort is opening six weeks earlier than normal on May 1 due to increased consumer interest in convenient, yet off-the-grid escapes within the U.S. great outdoors. Thanks to the lack of cruise ships and less charter fishing excursions, less pressure has been placed on the fish and the eco-system, making wildlife watching and fishing better than ever.

  • Floatplane Fishing Adventure—enjoy a scenic chartered flight and land in remote spots to enjoy a one-of-a-kind guided fishing experience where very few people are privileged to go each year
  • Salmon Roe & Wine Pairing—experience the freshest salmon roe that rivals the best in the world and further elevate your tasting affair with hand-picked wine pairings
