About Kachemak Bay State Park
Kachemak Bay State Park covers about 400,000 acres of peaks, ice fields, woodland and sea across the bay region of southern Alaska. Its shoreline rock formations reveal how the earth's crust has shifted. Visitors can fish, boat, kayak, hike, camp and climb in the mountains. The bay is an important marine habitat, where sea otters, seals, porpoises and whales are often seen. Moose, black bears, mountain goats, coyotes and wolves live on the land, and eagles, gyrfalcons and puffins draw birdwatchers. Most of the park has no road access, so visitors typically arrive by air or by boat from Homer. Much of the park is undeveloped, cell service is limited, and the park recommends a satellite device for backcountry trips.
