Welcome to the Seward Police Department's Website

Seward, with a population of 2,800 people, is located at the head of Resurrection Bay. Commercial and recreational ports, the terminus for the Alaska Railroad, and the annual Fourth of July festivities bring thousands of visitors to the area each year.
