Island Life

Douglas Island lies west of downtown Juneau and  is separated from mainland Juneau by the Gastineau Channel. The Juneau-Douglas Bridge, connecting the island with Juneau, provides a two lane road to and from the island and accommodates both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.  The island has a land area of 76.93 square miles (199.25 km2) and has a population of over 5,000 residents, with over half of the island's population residing in Douglas proper. It is part of the City and Borough of Juneau. 

Features of the island include remnants of the Treadwell Gold Mine, Sandy Beach, Eaglecrest Ski Area, Perseverance Theatre, Treadwell Ice Arena, Douglas Boat Harbor, Gastineau Elementary School, the Douglas Public Library, one gas station and several restaurants and one pub-style bar. As a tidal island, Douglas is connected to the mainland at its north end when the Gastineau Channel is at low tide
