Change oar (anag) — here in Alaska? (9)

I believe the answer is:

anchorage

(Other definitions for anchorage that I've seen before include "where you might fnd a refuge" , "Safe place for ship; Alaskan city" , "US city" , "Place for ship to stay - Alaska city" , "Roadstead" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
