Where to Go for Bear Watching in Alaska
There are many places in Alaska where you can see bears. The list below is based on my personal experience and is not all-inclusive.
Lake Clark National Park
Lake Clark National Park is a great place to see bears. It’s located in the headwaters of Bristol Bay. The area has stunning landscapes, with mountains, volcanoes (like Mount Redoubt), glaciers, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, and lots of wildlife.
The easiest way to reach Lake Clark is by plane, with flights leaving from Homer and Anchorage, though some parts of the park can be reached by boat.
Once in Lake Clark National Park, you can join a guided tour that takes you to the best spots to watch bears safely. On a lucky day, you could see up to 15 bears. When I was there, we saw so many that we lost count—someone in my group counted 20.
Bears in Lake Clark mainly eat salmon.
Depending on the time of your visit, you might see them feeding on freshly caught salmon, salmon that’s just spawned and is about to die (which swims more slowly and is easier to catch), or salmon that has already died and floats on the water. When I visited, I saw bears feeding on salmon that had already spawned, and there was a lot of dead salmon on the shore—along with a really strong smell of rotten fish.
There are several spots in Lake Clark National Park where you can see brown bears, usually when they are feeding along the shore or resting, preparing for winter.
