About Kodiak Alaska

Kodiak Island lies off the southern coast of Alaska and is the second largest island in the U.S. For most people, Kodiak's identity is inexorably linked with its most famous resident, the Kodiak brown bear. About 3,000 bears inhabit the archipelago and many more are living along the Katmai Coast. The proximity of these two large bear populations make Kodiak an ideal hub for wildlife trips. The island has a rich historical and cultural heritage with the Alutiiq people who first inhabited Kodiak Island more than 7,500 years ago. Kodiak became the first capital of Russian America and was a major fur trading center for many years. Today Kodiak is one of the busiest fishing ports in the United States, and offers adventure seekers a wide range of tours and activities - from bear viewing to sport fishing and sightseeing.

The island has very few roads, only about 80 miles in total. Animals are rarely spotted from vehicles and the majority of bear viewing is by aircraft or from special wilderness lodges. Review Kodiak Driving Map.
