Port Clarence

A vast, deep-water natural harbor that separates the two communities, often filled with varying shades of blue and turquoise.

Teller Spit

The remarkably narrow gravel bar where the village of Teller is situated, looking like a thin needle against the Bering Sea.

Bering Sea Horizon

Expansive views toward the west where the harbor meets the open Bering Sea, offering a true sense of Arctic isolation.

Arctic Ice Formations

During winter and spring, the harbor transforms into a mosaic of pressure ridges and leads in the sea ice.

Grantley Harbor

The more sheltered inner harbor to the east, which serves as a vital fishing and transportation corridor for local residents.

Kigluaik Mountains

Distant views of the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Seward Peninsula interior, providing a rugged backdrop to the coastal tundra.

Tuksuk Channel

The narrow waterway that drains Grantley Harbor into the Imuruk Basin, visible as a winding thread through the landscape.

Coastal Tundra Wildlife

The low-lying shrubs and mosses are prime habitat for muskox and reindeer; keep a sharp eye out for moving brown dots.
