Alaska Bear Viewing Tours

We offer fully guided Alaska bear viewing tours by boat. You will either depart from Anchor Point or Homer Alaska (depending on weather conditions) and we will take you across beautiful Cook Inlet to Chinitna Bay Loated in Lake Clark National Park.

Then its just a short walk up the beach to a grass marsh where we will be viewing brown bears by the dozens as they congregate to feed on the tidal sedge grasses.

On one of our Alaska Bear Viewing Tours you may see anywhere from 12 to 20 coastal brown bears, big male boars, sows with up to 3 cubs spending time feeding on chum or silver salmon. During certain times of the season, usually in the months of July or August you may see them digging clams on the beach.

On the boat ride going and coming back from viewing the bears you will see pods of Orcas, Dahl Porposes, Sea Otters and many different Sea Bird Species as well as 5 active Volcanoes.

You have the opportunity when you arrive to view from a dozen to as many as 40 plus bears in one day!

See Majestic Brown Bears on Our Alaska Bear Tours

Brown / Grizzly bears are seen throughout Alaska except on the island south of Frederick Sound in Southeastern Alaska, the islands west of Unimak Island in the Aluetian Chain, and the Islands of the Bering Sea. The term “Brown Bear”is the common term used by Alaskans for bears found in coastal Areas. Their habitat is rich grasslands and Salmon filled streams offering a bountiful food source.

Brown bears and Grizzly bears are genetically the same, however they are called brown bears when they live in near coastal areas in proximity to coastal areas where there is more moderate weather and better food sources. Moderate weather means these bears do not den as long which means they eat more months of the year than their cousins the Grizzly.

Grizzlies live in the inland areas and their habit is on mountain slopes and inland forests they are typically smaller in size than coastal Brown bears. Also “Grizzlys”are smaller cause they don’t feed on the salmon rich rivers that Brown bears feed thru out the summer.

Black bears are found over most of the forested areas of Alaska except the Seward Peninsula. In many places such as on the Yukon/Kuskokwim Delta or north of the Brooks Range, Black bears can vary in color from Black to cinimon color. Black Bears are often seen in south central Alaska and southeastern mainland.
