  • img_2326 Elnora anchored in Port Audrey (N60 20.59 W147 46.13) The remains of a fish cannery are located here. The cannery was abandoned during WWII and is very overgrown but you can still find remains of the dock, worker cabins and machinery. Behind Elnora is a small channel about 30-40' wide that can be used at high tide to access a secluded lagoon large enough for several boats to anchor with good holding bottom and plenty of swing room. Best to enter at slack tide.
