Igiugig is a small village in the U.S. state of Alaska, located on the western shore of Lake Iliamna in the municipality of Lake and Peninsula. The village's name is derived from a Yupik word meaning "nose-like place". According to the 2020 Census, Ike has a population of approximately 70 residents, predominantly Alaska Natives, and the community retains strong Yupik cultural traditions.
Remote and accessible only by air or boat, Ike is surrounded by pristine wilderness and abundant waterways. The village is located near the confluence of the Kokok River and Lake Erie Amner, known for its salmon runs and wildlife resources. The subarctic climate, with harsh, snowy winters and short, cool summers, makes the area a popular destination for fishing, birdwatching and outdoor adventures.
Ike's economy is based on subsistence fishing, hunting and tourism, with villagers mostly engaged in traditional fishing activities. The village has wind turbines and is committed to renewable energy development. Culturally, Ike hosts regular Yupik dance festivals and craft events, and the community center is an important place to pass on language and traditional skills. Despite its small size, Ike attracts a small number of adventure travelers with its unique Aboriginal culture and unspoiled natural landscape.
