Seward is truly a paradise of Alaskan adventure, with many exciting activities to exhilarate the mind, body, & soul. Visitors could spend a week or more in Seward without running out of unique things to do or see. Contact any one of Seward's Sightseeing and Tour Operators. Fishing Charters Seward is home to some of Alaska's finest sport fishing. Anglers will find excellent fishing almost year-round in Seward. Here, fishermen and women have the chance to feel the arm-burning power of a giant Pacific Halibut, fight an acrobatic Silver (Coho) Salmon on light tackle, catch a trophy Lingcod, or troll for Alaska's renowned King (Chinook) Salmon. Halibut fishing begins in March and continues into October. Silver Salmon return by the thousands to the waters around Seward in late June and run into early September, with the annual Silver Salmon Derby being held in August. Fishing for winter feeder King Salmon runs from September - June, and Lingcod season opens July 1st. Seward has over 30 fishing charter operators, ready to take you on the fishing trip of your lifetime! Trail Rides & Bird Viewing Trail Rides! "Come ride down the river to the shores of Resurrection Bay. This area of Seward is only accessible by horse back. View bald eagles up close, see where they nest and watch them feed. It is rare that you can't ride your horse right under the trees where they majestically perch. We will ride through part of the old town of Seward that was destroyed by the great earthquake of 1964. You will hear the stories of the people who lived through it. Our horses will then take us to the shore of the bay where the wild flowers meet the ocean. The bird life of this area is very diverse, active and up close. This Trail Ride could very well be the wilderness highlight of your trip to Seward and Alaska. See it all with Bardy's Trail Rides. Cruise Kenai Fjords Cruise Kenai Fjords National Park to see the hundreds of islands, fjords, glaciers, and pristine coves.
