It is about 1 mile or so uphill then down from town. Lots of petroglyphs on rocks all over the beach. We were happy we made the trip. Many people from our ship did. You get a glimpse of a small...

There are no words to describe this experience. Go and see for yourself. Clear waters, shells, history and the mysterious petroglyphs. Who did it? Was that an alien pictured on that stone?

There is no guidance for where they are. Go right off the info deck about 100 feet and watch larger or flat rock faces. They are spread out over several yards and from sand into water at medium tide. Some get covered sometimes by sand and pebbles from waves. VERY cool feeling to see these. I walked 20 min. from ferry to there. I found them and got these pics in 20 min before heading back. Try to take longer and go at low tide.

Wow, what a cool place to visit while in Wrangell, Alaska. Absolutely amazing beach as it's full of surprises, kind of hidden petroglyphs seen all over the beach (tip: best seen when raining or bring a bottle of water with you in order to pour over the rocks for better view), recommended to hire a local guide in order to gain first hand knowledge of this incredible art work from the local natives, truly a unique experience.
