Sam's Alaskan Adventures - Kodiak Bear Wildlife Viewing and Photography

Wildlife Viewing,

Known as “the Emerald Isle”, Kodiak is the largest island in Alaska and is located 250 miles SW of Anchorage.  It is notched by deep fiord-like bays and patterned with numerous lakes and rivers.  The lush and carried terrain is a colorful blend of cottonwood, alder, wildflowers and alpine meadows.

You can expect to see Sitka Black-tailed Deer, red fox, river and sea otters, seals and an occasional pod of whales.  Most of all you will see an abundance of Kodiak brown bears.  During late summer bears concentrate near streams in pursuit of salmon which affords excellent opportunities for viewing and photography.  The island is populated with many bird species including kittiwakes, gulls, cormorants, puffins, belted kingfishers, harlequins, common mergansers and bald eagles.

We offer different packages from one-day trips to weeklong excursions.  All wildlife viewing trips include the opportunity to take advantage of the great fishing. Remember to pick up a fishing license and bring a rod to catch some Silver Salmon while you await the Kodiak Brown Bears to submerge from the bushes.
