Cordova, a historic fishing town on Prince William Sound, thrives on salmon harvests and traditions rooted in the Eyak and Chugach people. From 1902 – 1933, Cordova served as the railroad terminus and ocean shipping port for copper ore from the Kennecott Mine along the Copper River. Today, residents rely on fishing, hunting, and gathering, while cultural festivals celebrate their maritime heritage. Nearby, the Copper River Delta offers stunning views of Million Dollar Bridge and Childs Glacier, along with birdwatching and outdoor adventures.
