Kodiak is a great starting point for the more remote areas.
Kodiak is a great jumping off point for wilderness trips to fish and see the bears. We also took a rental car, VERY expensive, for a day to drive to the end of the island to see the whales. Not a lot to do in the city itself.
Kodiak is beautiful. The second day there it was overcast but otherwise sunny. I love the ocean and boats so it was nice to see both. Great fishing and just a pleasant place to relax.
Small population island but beautiful scenery.i loved it....
