Saint Lawrence Island is a 100-mile long island located 400 miles west of Nome, and just 40 miles from Siberia. Saint Lawrence's primary settlement is Gambell, home to Siberian Eskimos who have lived here for centuries. There are no cars on the island, and the economy depends upon subsistence hunting of bowhead and gray whales, seal, walrus, fish, and birds. The island is well off the main tourist path, but tours are available out of Anchorage. Limited lodging and food are available.
