About ten miles from Seward is one of the most accessible glaciers in Alaska. You are able to park within 1/2 mile of the glacier. Then it's an easy walk to within 15 yards of this glacier.

There are unlimited recreational, sightseeing and photography opportunities in every direction.

The Alaska SeaLife Center offers an unrivaled up-close and personal experience with Gulf of Alaska marine wildlife. Witness 1500 pound Steller sea lions gliding past underwater viewing windows, puffins diving in a carefully crafted naturalistic habitat, and harbor seals hauled out on rocky beaches. Alaskan king crab, sea stars, and Pacific octopus also await you, as well as a whole variety of intertidal creatures and deep sea fishes. (as quoted from their website).

Kenai Fjords National Park is known for its scenic glaciers, rugged coastal fjords, and abundant marine wildlife viewing. The park is dominated by the 300 square mile Harding Ice Field and its 34 major glaciers. Most of the park is accessible only by boat.
