Chichagof Island Coastal Brown Bear

Dates: May 1st-10th, May 10-20th | September 15th-October 1st

Chichagof Island in Unit 4 offers exceptional coastal brown bear hunting during both the spring and fall seasons, operating out of Gull Cove Lodge. This area is widely known for its high bear density and classic Southeast Alaska habitat, with long shorelines, tidal flats, and productive salmon systems that consistently hold bears. Hunts are primarily boat-based and conducted using spot-and-stalk methods, allowing hunters to cover extensive coastline and focus on mature bears in prime locations. The combination of proven habitat, experienced guiding, and comfortable lodge access makes Chichagof Island a premier destination for coastal brown bear hunters.
