Scenic Flight
Your Hallo Bay Bear Viewing Tour begins with a spectacular flight from Anchorage, tracing the shoreline of Cook Inlet before crossing to the remote Katmai coast.
The route takes you over some of Alaska’s most dramatic terrain. Active volcanoes rise above the treeline, glacier-carved valleys sweep down to the sea, and the wild expanse of the Alaska Range fills the horizon. On clear days, you may spot beluga whales moving through the Inlet, moose wading through river deltas, or Dall sheep picking their way along high ridges. By the time Hallo Bay comes into view, its broad tidal flats flanked by the volcanic peaks of the Aleutian Range, you’ll already know this is somewhere extraordinary.
Bear Viewing
Hallo Bay sits at the base of Mount Douglas on the Katmai coast, and few places on earth offer a more intimate encounter with wild brown bears.
The bay’s wide, open landscape of sandy beach, tidal flat, and lush sedge meadow supports some of the highest densities of coastal brown bears ever recorded. In early summer, bears graze on sedge grasses and dig for razor clams along the shoreline. As the season shifts, salmon pour into the streams and the bears turn their attention to the water, fishing with the practiced confidence of animals that have done this for thousands of years. All of it unfolds against a backdrop of volcanic peaks, glacial rivers, and the vast open sky of the Katmai coast.
