Pick up your 4×4 SUV and enjoy the remainder of the day at your leisure exploring Alaska’s largest city.
Start your day with a scenic drive along Turnagain Arm, a National Scenic Byway. Watch for Dall sheeps on the mountains to your left and for Beluga whales in the ocean to your right. Then travel along the turquoise blue Kenai River, a world-class salmon fishing area of Kenai.

Spend the day touring Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula. Take your time while driving along the Kenai River once again, before you turn south on the Seward Highway towards Seward – the gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park. Take one of the many hiking trails along the route or plan on visiting Exit Glacier or the Alaska SeaLife Center once you reached Seward.
