Polar Bear Watching in Alaska 2025
Alaska is one of the few regions in the world where it is possible to spot polar bears
Best time: August–October
Watching wild polar bears in their natural habitat is one of the unique experiences in the world. The symbol of Arctic can be spotted near the Katovik and Barrow communities. The period between August and October is a no-ice season, so bears usually rest on the beaches, that’s why it’s the best time to see these animals. Powerful predators of water and ice, polar bears can be dangerous for human, so keep your distance.
