Beautiful views and never to crowded

Clean bathrooms and views are amazing. Close to some really cool hikes and just 30-40 feet from the ocean.

Bring a table and chairs

You can see Valdez across the water from this campground. There are fire pits for each spot but no tables so you will need to bring your own.

There is cell phone service here as well as internet. There are 49 spots and they are located on both sides of the road so if you can’t find your spot go back down and look on the other side of the road.

Fishing Only

This really isn't a campsite, but more of a place to park while you fish. All the spots are directly along the road access. They do not have fire pits (although you can have a fire) or picnic tables at most spots. This is seriously just a place to be if you wish to be very close access to the amazing salmon fishing. Gorgeous views of mountains and Glaciers in almost every direction do help with the lack of amenities.

Fishing for Salmon

The campground is along the road. It is just gravel sights. It was nice to have a bathroom in walking distance. However, the price was a little much for a night sleeping in a tent and not having access to potable water or electricity. The appealing part is that the campground sits right above the water so it was nothing to walk down and fish for salmon.
