Water's Edge Lodge

Why we love it

We have a soft spot for Water's Edge because it trusts its guests to do it their way, and Elfin Cove rewards that independence with big halibut and hard-running salmon. We are delighted their gift shop carries Creative Artisan pewter, a fitting keepsake for a trip you captained yourself.

The experience

Water's Edge is built for anglers who want the keys to their own boat. From the boardwalk village of Elfin Cove you run a fully rigged centre-console boat into some of Southeast Alaska's richest water, then come home each night to a hot meal and your fish already cleaned and frozen.

The fish

• Halibut
• King salmon
• Silver salmon
• Lingcod
• Rockfish

Each fish links to its pewter counterpart in our shop, the version of the catch that never has to be released.

Take the trip home

Self-guided fish deserve self-chosen souvenirs: the halibut and salmon of Cross Sound, in pewter.
