Akutan Hot Springs is a natural geothermal site on Akutan Island in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, one of the most volcanically active island chains on Earth, where powerful geothermal springs emerge near the base of the active Akutan Volcano. The springs are situated within the traditional territory of the Unangan (Aleut) people, who have inhabited the Aleutian Islands for over 9,000 years and have long used natural thermal waters as part of their subsistence culture. The extraordinary volcanic landscape, dramatic Aleutian weather, and the remote frontier character of the island give Akutan Hot Springs an elemental, raw geothermal power unmatched anywhere in North America.
