About Golovin
Sitting on a narrow strip of land between Golovnin Bay and a quiet lagoon, Golovin is a small, close-knit Iñupiat village on Alaska's Seward Peninsula. Originally known as Chinik, the community has deep roots and a relaxed, welcoming pace of life. Daily routines here follow the seasons, with residents heading out on the water for salmon fishing, gathering berries in the late summer, and relying on traditional hunting. It is a remote, beautiful coastal spot where neighbors know each other well and the wilderness is right outside your front door.
