- [Cook Inlet Wildlife](https://alaskabearviewing.tours/cook-inlet-wildlife/): The two-hour boat crossing from Anchor Point to Chinitna Bay is how we reach our Lake Clark bear viewing site, and it covers some of the most productive marine habitat in Alaska. Cook Inlet runs through the heart of south-central Alaska, bordered on the east by the Kenai Peninsula and on the west by the Alaska Range and its chain of active volcanoes. The water is cold, tidal, and full of life, and most guests are surprised to find that the wildlife watching begins the moment we leave the dock.

The park's Chinitna Bay coastline on the western shore of Cook Inlet is where we take our tours and it's one of the most reliable brown bear viewing locations in the state, with sightings that average 12 to 40 animals per trip throughout the June to September season.
