Overview

About

If you wanna get lost from the real world and found by Mother Nature, Magoun Islands State Marine Park is the place to do it! Completely undeveloped, the islands are a backcountry-lover's dream. There are unspoiled views, sheltered bays for camping, and top-notch beach combing. Start up your campfire and cast a line til sunset or enjoy a dip in the water. Kayakers also famously love this spot, to which you can arrive in style by boat or plane for a backwoods adventure in the heart of real Alaskan wilderness.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Magoun Islands State Marine Park is during the summer months, when the weather is warm and the days are long. However, be mindful of the peak season crowds. Off-season visits can offer a more secluded experience, though some services may be limited. Always check for seasonal closures before planning your trip.

  • Ensure you have the necessary permits and are aware of any park regulations before your visit.
  • Prepare for the weather; bring layers and waterproof gear to adapt to changing conditions.
  • Check the park's official website for updates on trail closures and safety advisories.
  • Be wildlife aware; carry bear spray and know how to store food safely.
