About Hoonah
The Little City with a Big Heart
On Chichagof Island, 30 miles west of Juneau in Alaska’s scenic Inside Passage, lies the community of Hoonah. Initially a Tlingit village, Hoonah remains the largest Tlingit community today and members of the Hoonah Tlingit tribe have lived in the area for thousands of years. Known as the Little City with a Big Heart, Hoonah is a family-oriented and closely-knit community of friendly and caring people.
Today Hoonah is home to Icy Strait Point, one of the world’s most productive salmon canneries. The facility was initially built in 1912 and then re-built in the early 2000’s to become a port for cruise ships. The cannery also houses a museum, local arts and crafts shops, restaurants, the ZipRider, and a cannery line display from the mid-1930’s which makes it a great attraction for visitors.
