Kodiak INTRODUCTION

Bear-viewing is, indeed, one of the most popular activities on Kodiak Island. The best time to see a Kodiak bear is during July, August and September and the best way to do so is in the company of a knowledgeable guide. Full and multi-day trips are offered during the bear season from Anchorage with easy accessibility by air and for the seafarers, Alaska Ferry also makes a stop to the island with direct services from Homer, just over 220 miles from Anchorage.
