Potlatch Totem Park lies about 16 km north of the city centre on Totem Bight Road, right next to Totem Bight State Historical Park, about 20 minutes by car. Along a seaside trail stand several Tlingit and Haida totem poles, alongside reconstructed tribal houses and a workshop where carvers work in view of visitors. There are also a vintage car and antique firearms museum and a large gift shop. Admission is free. The park is generally open 9:00–17:00 during cruise season, but check on site.
