About Port Protection

Tucked along the rugged northwest coast of Prince of Wales Island, Port Protection is a tiny, off-grid community accessible only by boat or floatplane. There are no roads here. Residents get around by skiff and on wooden boardwalks that wind through the coastal forest. It is a tight-knit, self-reliant place where daily life revolves around commercial fishing, subsistence living, and the tides.
