About Afognak Island State Park

Afognak Island State Park covers much of the east and north sides of Afognak Island, near Kodiak. The island has steep, rough terrain, dense old-growth Sitka spruce forests, and streams that salmon use for spawning. Visitors can see Kodiak brown bears, Sitka black-tailed deer, Roosevelt elk, and the endangered marbled murrelet. Popular activities include hunting, fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, kayaking, packrafting, and camping. Logging roads inside the park are closed to motorized vehicles but open to hikers and bikers. Three public-use cabins are available, and access is by float plane or boat because there is no road access.
