Booking: Congratulations on choosing Alaska Adventures for your Alaska Bear Viewing destination.  Alaska Adventures operates only the highest quality wilderness Bear Viewing Tours. Please call us to book your trip while the spots last. A 50% deposit is required; the rest will be required by June 1st.

All about Bears: Grizzly Bears, Brown Bears, Kodiak Bears- they are all the same species. The names are only used to distinguish where these animals dwell geographically.

Bear Safety: Once arriving to Brooks Camp, your guide will give a detailed and serious talk about bear safety. Here are the talking points.

Seasons: The weather in Katmai is mild compared to much of the state. The winds are often broke up by the numerous mountains sheltering Naknek Lake. Typical weather patterns for the summer and fall seasons. Please note that with the effects of climate change have made for much less predictable weather within the last five years.

What to Bring:

Photography:

Fishing: The Naknek fishery is an amazing and productive part of Alaska. The seemlingly unlimited resource of Salmon creates a biodiverse ecosystem filled with large mammals and a healthy population of Rainbow Trout.

Getting Here: Once in Anchorage, we recommend taking a day or two to enjoy the quirkiest big city in the nation. Board a plane to King Salmon via the Anchorage International Airport. Be sure to get in on an early flight as your float plane ($200 round trip per person) will leave King Salmon at 10am.

Departure: There is no guided fishing on the day of departure, unless other arrangements have been made.  Weather permitting; you will depart the lodge on Sunday morning, so that you arrive in King Salmon with plenty of time to catch your connecting flights.  On the day you depart, please be sure to have your bags packed and ready for transfer to the waiting area by 9:00am.  The staff will need to get into the rooms to be able to have them ready for the incoming group.  We appreciate you cooperation in this matter.

Travel Insurance: We HIGHLY recommend travel insurance. Alaska is known for its storms and its unpredictability. Call Alaska Adventures so we can discuss your options.

Gratuities: At Alaska Adventures we are confident that we will provide a level of service that meets or exceeds your expectations.  Our staff is committed to manifesting the best possible Alaska experience for all of our guests.  One way to show your appreciation for this level of service is by tipping the staff and guides.   Each person based on a $5400 leaves an average gratuity of 15-20% a week trip. We ask that you put it an envelope provided to you, write the amounts to be recieved by each person and hand it to the camp manager and hand it to our Yacht manager.  If at any time our service does not meet your expectations, please notify us immediately.
