Turnagain Arm Tour

Aperçu
Spend 5 hours on a half-day tour of the scenic Turnagain Arm—a narrow branch of the Cook Inlet that's backed by the Chugach Mountains. Drive on America's most scenic road, the famous Seward Highway, and stop at spots like Beluga Point to scan the landscape for wildlife. At the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, see where injured and orphaned animals are brought to be rehabilitated, and observe large mammals like caribou, bison, and elk. Lunch is not included but available for purchase at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. Later, drive through the Chugach Mountains, before finishing the guided, small group tour with pick up and drop off in Anchorage.

Activity Level: EASY

À quoi s'attendre
1
Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center
The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center is a sanctuary dedicated to preserving Alaska’s wildlife through conservation, research, education and quality animal care. AWCC takes in injured and orphaned animals year-round and provides them with spacious enclosures and quality animal care. Most of the animals that arrive at the AWCC become permanent residents and will always have a home here. The Center maintains over 200 acres of spacious habitats for animals to feel at home and display their natural “wild” behavior. Visitors may see brown bears cooling off in the water, a bull moose strutting, wood bison roaming on pastures and more.

Beluga Point
This is a popular stop as you travel the Seward Highway. Here you'll find 180 degree views of Turnagain Arm. There's an extensive viewing area with spotting scopes and interpretive signs. This is an excellent spot to watch the bore tide. The incoming tide stretched the entire width of Turnagain Arm and can be six feet high as it rushes in. Watch for kayakers and surfers riding the wave for several miles. Look for beluga whales rolling in the surf (starting in September)

Went on this tour on May 25, 2019. I only had one day in Alaska to do some sightseeing, knew I wanted to see the wildlife conservation center, and any other nearby locations that I would not have found on my own. Our tour guide Matt did a good job explaining some of the Anchorage culture and pointed out wildlife spotting locations on the way down to the conservation center. We were not lucky enough to spot any whales at beluga point, but we were able to see some eagles at a second stop. The conservation center did not disappoint. Seeing moose, musk ox, elk, and bears up close but in their own climate was wonderful. Will absolutely be returning there if I am able to return to Anchorage. After the conservation center, we drove through Girdwood, a small town outside of Anchorage. After our stop in Girdwood it started to rain, so our tour drew to a close and we returned to Anchorage. Would definitely recommend bringing a camera and a telephoto lens if you have it.
