It's good to hear from you. Anchorage is really in an arm of water that is connected to the Pacific Ocean. That arm is called the Cook Inlet. It's a pretty big piece of water that is surrounded by land on three sides, so Anchorage is protected from the rough ocean. As you know, California has a coastline with the Pacific Ocean.Thanks,
Mr. Wood
