Daily life is shaped by the cold: homeowners plan for supplies ahead of storms, bundle up for outdoor chores, and rely on both neighbors and community resources to navigate winter safely. Yet this planning also brings connection and a sense of pride neighbors checking in, lending a hand, or sharing a warm meal strengthens the bonds that make Seldovia unique.
Compared to living in Fairbanks, Seldovia winters are easy! So much more temperate, but still dangerous if you're not prepared.
Recreation doesn’t stop for winter. Residents ice fish, ski, snowshoe, or take quiet walks along the snowy shoreline. Wildlife and natural beauty provide constant reminders of the incredible environment Seldovia offers year-round.
