Icy Strait Point

Icy Strait Point is a refurbished 1930s fish cannery at Point Sophia which is the headquarters for a variety of historic, natural history and cultural tours. Icy Strait was originally built as a salmon cannery and has been an important part of the community of Hoonah for years serving a variety of functions.

Excursions are available at the facility and the Icy Strait is a prime location for cruise ship guests. Visitors are encouraged to book their tours at their cruise lines websites prior to arrival. Icy Strait allocates all of the departure times and space to the cruise ship that is in port for the day and controls all sales until they arrive at Icy Strait Point. Cruise companies generally close their internet bookings three to seven days before the ships departure date so book early. Booking tickets through the cruise lines at their websites is easy and has many benefits.

Some of the excursions that are available for booking include Hoonah Bike Trek, halibut fishing, whales and wildlife searches, bear excursions, Seafood Feast and Tribal Dance, Icy Strait Kayak Adventure and much more. Shopping is located just steps from the Icy Strait Point and convenient and popular shops often cater to the tourists.
