'Revillagigedo Channel' is an ocean
channel in the
Alexander Archipelago of the
U.S. state of
Alaska. Extending 56 km (35 mi) northwest from the
Dixon Entrance, it lies between the mainland to the east,
Revillagigedo Island to the north, and
Duke Island and
Annette Island to the southwest. It is part of the
Inside Passage to
Ketchikan.
The channel was named for
Juan Vicente de Güemes Padilla Horcasitas y Aguayo, 2nd Count of Revillagigedo,
viceroy of
New Spain, in
1793.
The
Tree Point Light is an important aid-to-navigation in Revillagigedo Channel.
