Dillingham is a small, remote community located in southwestern Alaska along the coast of Bristol Bay. It serves as the hub for the Bristol Bay region, providing essential services, transportation, and economic activity for the surrounding communities. Dillingham has a population of nearly 2,300 people and is known for strong ties to fishing, particularly the commercial salmon fishing industry, which plays a central role in the local economy. Dillingham is accessed primarily by air and water, as there are no roads connecting Dillingham to the rest of Alaska's highway system. The area surrounding Dillingham is known for its year-round natural beauty, with vast wilderness areas, rivers, and lakes offering abundant opportunities for outdoor activities. The city is also a gateway to Wood Tikchik State Park, one of the largest state parks in the United States.
