Wildlife Viewing Tours
Homer Air offers you the opportunity of a lifetime to visit the Alaska Coastal Brown Bear in his natural environment.
We fly you through some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, past active volcanoes and glaciers to the largest
concentration of brown bears in the world. After landing on the beach and stepping out of the bush plane you are a guest
in their home.
You and your guide will walk along the beaches and meadows that they call home and respectfully view these bears as they
pursue their natural lives in their habitat.
We observe them fishing, digging for clams, grubbing for roots and grasses, socializing and raising their young.
Along with these magnificent bears you will have an opportunity to view other wildlife, neighbors of the bears sharing
the same remote habitat. Wolves, foxes, bald
eagles, occasionally moose, a wide variety of bird life, and sea life are all species that make home in the area.

On our wildlife viewing day trips we depart from Homer Airport to one of the most amazing areas of the world and spend the day on the beach in prime bear habitat and return the same day. It allows you to do something else around Homer the same day as the tour and is also great for families with children. It may be available for either morning or afternoon departures.
We can arrange overnight camping on the beach or offshore islands for those who want to spend more time in the park and would enjoy camping with the airplane and pilot/guide. Think of it like trekking (through the air) to different locations along the coast of the national park(s) and landing to day hike and camp where we like (safety permitting) along the way.
We offer the option of combining two of our most popular tours in to one trip. Not only is it cheaper but also takes less time than taking both tours separately.
Lots of information about the bears you'll see on your wildlife tour and guidelines for safe viewing practices.
