Port Lions

Port Lions, Alaska

Population: 256 (Census 2000)
Distance from Kodiak: 19 air miles

Sitka spruce, cottonwood, birch, alder and willow trees cover the mountainous terrain around Port Lions, on Kizhuyak Bay. Located at the north end of Kodiak Island, the city was established after the tsunami of 1964 partially destroyed Afognak village on Afognak Island. The community was named in honor of Lions Club International, the service group that helped relocate and build the new village. Several lodges and charter services offer access to the stunning scenery, fishing, hunting and wildlife viewing throughout Kizhuyak Bay and the surrounding area.

Kodiak Island is famous for its world class sport fishing, its huge Kodiak Brown bears, and in the spring, the island turns such a beautiful green that Kodiak Island is known as the “Emerald Island”.
