Sweeping westward from the tip of the Alaska Peninsula, the Aleutian Islands are located in one of the most beautiful and dramatic regions in the world.
Nestled among active volcanoes, sea-sculpted coastline, and endless miles of untamed landscape exist the Aleut people and an array of birds, wildlife, and marine life.
The communities that inhabit the Aleutian Islands – Akutan, Cold Bay, False Pass, King Cove, and Sand Point – share a common heritage dating back to the last Ice Age and a reliance on the North Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea.
