Gustavus Visitors Association- Gateway to Glacier Bay Gustavus, Alaska: Gateway to Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. Email us for information on how to get here. Gustavus is just right!

The Gateway to Glacier Bay, Gustavus offers a microcosm of all the natural beauty of Alaska. Here you will find an unhurried pace of life – you may head out for a hike and find yourself lingering in a berry patch, enjoying the 360-degree view of the beautiful Fairweather Mountains. Gustavus is not too big -- no industry interfering with the wilderness, no influx of cruise travelers, no string of s

ouvenir shops -- and not too small. Lodgings are available in a range of prices, restaurants feature local foods and an eclectic market serves the community. GVA Members - Monthly meetings at the Library 2nd Tuesday of the month at 1:00 p.m. Teleconferences arranged.
