Kiska Harbor is an inlet on the east coast of Kiska Island in Alaska’s Aleutian Islands, bordered by North Head and South Head with Little Kiska Island just offshore to the east. Its historical importance comes from World War II, when the Japanese occupation of Kiska Island lasted from 6 June 1942 to 28 July 1943. During that period, the harbor served as a naval base, giving this remote inlet a significant role in the Aleutian campaign.
