How to Get to our Kodiak Lodge
Afognak Wilderness Lodge is located in Seal Bay on Afognak Island, in the greater Kodiak Islands. Our lodge is best accessed from Kodiak. Guests typically arrive via chartered floatplane from Kodiak, however, those on the Kenai Peninsula may opt for a direct floatplane from Homer. We recommend lodging in either town the night before your flight to account for potential morning flight delays.
Once we see how many guests will travel on any given date, we’ll reserve the appropriate size floatplane for you.
You’ll need to take a taxi to the floatplane office 1½ -hour prior to departure time.
Upon your arrival at our dock, we’ll guide you to your cabin before swiftly transporting you for an uninterrupted fishing adventure. Our flexible arrival and departure dates ensure that you can tailor your trip to suit your preferences. We’re dedicated to making your trip as stress-free as possible, allowing you to enjoy worry-free fun with your friends and loved ones.
Float planes, despite their ability to access remote areas, are significantly impacted by adverse weather conditions of high fog and high winds. Sometimes, during fog, one of our boats can make the 3-hour trip to transfer guests. It’s all part of the adventure!
*While arrivals/departures are possible at other times of day, arriving early ensures you and other guests maximize your time for activities at the lodge or your next destination.
*For larger groups, flying directly from Anchorage to the lodge via floatplane is feasible, albeit more costly, and subject to more weather conditions. Please contact us if you think this arrangement would be beneficial.
