Afognak Island is a breathtaking oasis of outdoor adventure. It’s a pristine, untouched slice of nature and is truly one of Alaska’s crown jewels. With over 75,000 acres of immaculate Alaska state parks land, you’ll find picturesque views at every turn. Afognak Wilderness Lodge is at the heart of this piece of paradise, surrounded by ancient trees, abundant streams, and sheltered ocean waters. It’s the perfect place to stay for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. We have countless activities for you to partake in during your visit, but we’re particularly fond of kayaking in Alaska.
Sea Kayaking in Alaska
One of the biggest reasons why Afognak Island is so ideal for kayaking is its calm waters. Our Alaska Wilderness Lodge offers access to both fresh and saltwater, and our seashores are full of protected bays. Throughout your time sea kayaking in Alaska, you’re likely to see magnificent animals, such as sea lions, seals, sea otters, and porpoises. Your eyes will also be greeted by fantastic rock formations, emerald trees, and brilliantly-colored shorelines.Alaska Photography from the WaterThe things you’ll see on Afognak Island can’t be found anywhere else, so be sure to bring your camera along to Afognak Wilderness Lodge.
