Even on a wet and windy day an hour walk around Cordova is a great way to see things. Looking at the harbor will tell you if fishing is happening, if there are many empty stalls, most likely there is a fishing opener going on and fresh fish will be arriving to the processors within 12 - 24 hours or so. From the Reluctant Fisherman Inn walk down toward the Science Center to the City Dock ant take a closer look at Spike Island. While your are there don't forget to look down Orca Inlet to see Mummy Island and Little Mummy Island, or to the North toward Observation Island and Nelson Bay. Look back at town and up the hill to see the Ski Hill on Mt Eyak. From there if you walk toward the North you will see more of the industrial and shipping area and a boat ramp at the edge of the fill area, take a right and another right to walk up the hill to Observation Loop where this photo was taken. Continue on around the look past Cordova Gear and you are back on 1st Street or Main St.
All in all any short walk about in Cordova is interesting and offers some wonderful views..... and most likely you'll meet someone who will want to chat!
