Fans of survival-themed shows like Alone will find this docu-series captivating. Port Protection Alaska combines survival skills with social dynamics, offering a look into the lives of people who have chosen to live in extreme isolation. The breathtaking scenery and the residents' sheer determination to thrive in such a harsh environment are both awe-inspiring and humbling. The show also touches on the emotional bonds between neighbors and the challenges new residents face in integrating into this close-knit community, making it an intersting family watch.
