Kachemak Glacier Flight Tour

Enjoy ½ hour or full hour trips around Kachemak Bay and the surrounding area.

The best way to see Kachemak Bay and the Southern mountains of the Kenai Range is from the air.

Homer Air offers one hour and half hour long flightseeing tours in and around the area. We often see mountain goats grazing along the steep alpine tundra, black bear, moose and sometimes whales. The best part of the tour is the perspective that you will get of the Southern Peninsula. Blue glaciers, jagged peaks, high mountain lakes, and inlets of Kachemak Bay and the Gulf of Alaska are all around us. On clear days we can see Kodiak Island to the South, the Chugach Mountains above Anchorage to the North, and well into Katmai and Lake Clark National Parks to the west.

Harding Ice Field Flight Tour

We’ll fly you up, over and around the largest block of ice in North America.

Fly with us to the top of the largest ice field in Alaska. The Harding Ice field covers almost 700 square miles on the tops of the Southern Kenai Mountains between Homer and Seward. It is over six thousand feet high with a few higher peaks poking out, and more than 40 glaciers descending from it in all directions. The shapes of the mountains underneath aren’t known yet because they are still being formed. From the comfort of the plane you will see blue ice and glaciers in every direction spilling into the deep fjords and bays of Kenai Fjords National Park.

Ring of Fire Volcano Flight Tour

This is your best chance to see an active, Alaskan volcano from the air.

The Ring of Fire Tour takes you across Cook Inlet from Homer and Kachemak Bay to the active volcanoes in the Aleutian and Alaskan Ranges. Not only will you fly around the craters of these magnificent volcanoes, but you will also have views of giant glaciers and some of Alaska’s most rugged coastline.

The East coastline of Katmai and Lake Clark National Park that we fly along during the Ring of Fire Tour is one of the most dramatic and beautiful places in Alaska. It is full of wildlife, rich cultural history, scenery, and fascinating geological formations. A landing on the beach at the foot of one of these volcanoes is worth it.

Augustine Volcano is on an uninhabited rugged island sitting halfway into Cook Inlet with a perfectly formed volcanic cone that stands 4000 feet above its jagged coast and cooled lava fields. It last erupted in 2006. Another major eruption of Augustine will happen. The only question is when. The communities of the Kenai Peninsula are always on the lookout for this activity because of the tidal wave that a major eruption may create. In December of 2005 it began to show signs of life again. Early in 2006, at the time of writing, the Volcano is very active and has had several minor eruptions.

Douglas Volcano is on the East shore of Katmai National Park. It’s about 7300’ tall with a beautiful turquoise lake in its crater and surrounded by one of the largest interior glaciers in Alaska. The surounding Katmai coast is one of the most incredible and dramatic places in Alaska. Large volcanic formations, great beach combing, and an abundance of land and marine wildlife make a stop on the beach at the base of the volcano an unforgettable day trip.

Illiamna Volcano is over 10,000 feet tall and still active. It’s not uncommon to see gas and steam vent from the crater at the top. Illiamna sits in the Lake Clark National Park surrounded by rugged glaciers and the jagged peaks of the Southern Alaska Range.

Redoubt Volcano is the largest of the prominent volcanoes seen from Homer along the western skyline. The last eruption was in the early 90's when it covered the communities of the Kenai Peninsula with Volcanic Ash. It stands over 10,000 feet tall among the many other jagged peaks in the Lake Clark National Park.

Mount Denali ( aka Mt. McKinley)

Mount Denali (aka McKinley) is the tallest mountain in North America and a must see for anyone visiting Alaska. It isn’t necessary to make the long, 10-hour drive from Homer to Talkeetna; we’ll have you wide-eyed, gawking at the immensity of this mountain in less than an hour and a half.

Denali (Mckinley) Flight Tours
As most people know Mount Denali (also known as Mount McKinley) is the tallest mountain in North America at 20,320 Feet and a must see for anyone visiting Alaska. It isn’t necessary to make the long 10 hour drive from Homer to Talkeetna. We can have you there in less than an hour and a half. The flight there is half the attraction. You will fly North along the shores of Lake Clark National Park or the Kenai Peninsula passing giant volcanoes and glaciers along one of the most scenic coastlines of Alaska. In Talkeetna you will take a short break before departing on a Denali Mountain tour including a landing on a glacier.

South Face Mckinley Flight Tour
You'll fly over the lush Susitna Valley and enter the ice age world of the Alaska Range. See Mt. McKinley and the Ruth Gorge, the deepest in the world and filled with a 4,000 foot thick river of ice. Experience the Don Sheldon amphitheater surrounded by Granite peaks and cascading ice falls. Your pilot narrates the tour, pointing out wildlife and geological interests.

Base Camp McKinley Flight Tour
Fly over the longest glacier in Denali National Park, the 45 mile long Kahiltna glacier, to see where climbers begin their ascent of McKinley. As you approach the climber base camp, you will fly between McKinley’s two sister peaks: Mt. Hunter at 14,500' and Mt. Foraker at 17,400'. The famed West Buttress will be in full view and you may see climbers who have come from all over the world to challenge the mountains of the Alaska Range.
