Why you should go…

Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge covers about 1.9 million acres across two-thirds of Kodiak Island and parts of nearby islands, and it can only be reached by boat or floatplane. Kodiak brown bears are the draw, and the refuge supports all five species of Pacific salmon. You can also fish, kayak, hike, camp or book one of ten public-use cabins. In the town of Kodiak, the visitor center displays the complete skeleton of a 36-foot gray whale.
