Overview

About

Imagine 630 acres of wild Alaska just outside your tent. Hard to believe? Not at Sealion Cove State Marine Park! Here you can comb the sandy beach, kayak until your heart's content, and snap photos of the expansive shoreline that opens out into the Gulf of Alaska. Those wanting to make the trek can hop on a boat or float plane to nearby Kallinin Bay, then hike along the rich estuary to your sweet little camping home. Perfectly wild and stunningly beautiful, Sealion Cove is sure to make you feel like you’re on top of the world!

When to go

The ideal time to visit Sealion Cove State Marine Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is most favorable for outdoor activities. Conversely, the harsh Alaskan winters from November to March can limit access and enjoyment of the park's offerings.

Know before you go

  • Check weather conditions before your visit, as Alaska's climate can be unpredictable.
  • Be aware of wildlife and maintain a safe distance, especially from sea lions and bears.
  • Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for rugged terrain and potential weather changes.
  • There are no amenities available, so bring sufficient water, food, and necessary supplies.
  • Respect the park's natural environment by adhering to Leave No Trace principles.
