Welcome to Kenai, Alaska, an old Russian community, located in south central Alaska, and on the western side of the Kenai Peninsula.
   This area is the home of the "Kenai King" salmon (Kenai River) and the world's largest halibut (Cook Inlet). Sports fisherman from around the world come to Kenai to test their skills on these world class fish.
   The King salmon (Chinook) season starts May 15 and ends July 31, followed by the popular red salmon (Sockeye) during the latter part of July and early August. The silver salmon (Coho) run starts in late July and runs through September. The pink salmon run only on the even numbered years and can be caught from late July through August. Halibut, cod, pike, trout, char, grayling and a variety of other fish are available throughout the summer months.
