Friends of Alaska National Wildlife Refuges and Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge welcome the migratory shorebirds and YOU back to Alaska’s largest wildlife viewing event, the 30th Kachemak Bay Shorebird Festival May 4-8, 2022.
Join us for guided birding excursions, wildlife viewing and kayaking tours. You’ll find activities for people of all ages and abilities at locations ranging from the head of Kachemak Bay to Kamishak Bay. We hope you’ll enjoy presentations from our two Schantz Scholars and Audubon Alaska along with tours and talks by our knowledgeable locals.
At least 141 bird species (including 29 shorebird species) were spotted in 2021!
This year's festival artwork features a Bar-tailed Godwit, created by artist Stacy Studebaker.
If you have questions or would like to be on our mailing list, just get in touch, kachemakshorebird@gmail.com.
