Alaska West is a deluxe fly fishing tent lodge located on the Kanektok River in the far Southwest corner of mainland Alaska. Set on a wide, low stretch of coastal tundra, this is the real Alaskan wilderness, far from the crowds on the beaten path.
The Kanektok is a beautiful, midsized coastal river, with incredible variety and productivity for its size. All five species of Pacific salmon-king, silver, sockeye, chum and pink-return to the Kanektok each year to spawn, and the river also hosts the famous 'leopard' rainbow trout, dolly varden and grayling.
Since the lodge is located just 6 miles from the ocean, Alaska West provides a particularly unique opportunity to fly fish for fresh, bright, strong salmon that have just entered the river.
Alaska West is one example of the great organizations and itineraries you will find within our Family Adventure Travel Collection. Check it out!

| Seaside Palace Provides Royal Treatment |
 |
| My ten year old son exclaimed, "This is the most awesome place ever!".
This is quite an endorsement from a child who has traveled extensively from the age of 10 months to family oriented resorts around the globe.
The Karmina Palace is the ultimate family vacation destination. A wonderful "Kid's Club" for younger children, scheduled daily activities for the older kid in all of us (ranging from ping pong tournaments to kayak trips), an exciting water slide, trampoline, game room and daily movies make it easy for kids of all ages to thoroughly enjoy themselves.
Our kids were busy from dawn till dusk. When they are happy and busy, we are happy and relaxed. In the evenings the fun continued with nightly outdoor theme dinners and shows. We enjoyed "Around the World" cuisine and a dance performance from around the globe.
