Amazing views and super easy to get to. Do yourself a favor and explore on the other side of the tracks, but be careful since it is an active train route.

Excellent place to enjoy the scenery take the family and take lots of pictures great place to view mt. Goats might get lucky and see some belugas. Just have to be careful on the rocks

Wow!! What a view. Didnt get to see any Beluga Whales but still amazing to see. Ignore the no trespassing signs... everyone else does.

Nice lookout place to stop by to sight the stunning views of ice capped mountains . You can see the railway tracks from the parking and you shouldn’t trespass to go to other side as per the law .

Great picture place to stop on a way to Girdwood, Wittier or Seward. Cross tracks carefully and enjoy great views and picturesque spots. Watch for sagging soil at lower tides))

Great view, saw beluga whales at next pull off. No restroom or it would rate a 5 for a scenic place.

This place is just stunning. The drive out is peaceful and serene. If your careful you can get down to the shore and up the rock face for some amazing photos. Be prepared to climb though. Its definitely worth it.

I always love driving by this spot. Gorgeous views. Always very windy though lol.

This location is a must for capturing sunsets in Anchorage! We drove here straight from the airport and there are plenty of aspects of this area to help you create unique photos with depth - there’s a rail road, trees and mountains in the background to aid in creating the perfect shot.

This place was stunning. As our first time to Alaska, passing all of this on the drive in from the airport was just a gorgeous and humbling sight to witness. Stop in designated parking areas and do yourself the favor to take it all in and explore a little bit. Be careful as always!

I love this place. Right off the road and a great place to see the tide come in and out. I have seen whales here a couple times. Even slept in my car here a time or two. I wish the rocks were more accessible and you did not have to trespass to get out to them but I understand. The train goes right by here so you can get a great view of that too.

Beautiful surroundings. Cant beat the panoramic mountains

Beluga Point has incredible views! I end up bumping into several forest and a local and everyone seemed to have as much of appreciation of this spot as any. Im dropping a few photos. I was lucky to have perfect weather. Enjoy the Stop and be safe.

Beautiful view, very windy at certain times so bring a windbreaker. Please pack out trash to keep it beautiful! Watch your step getting down from the roadway, some access points are kind of steep.

Im not an author so any words I used to describe what beluga point sight is like would do it a disservice. The view of the mountains across the water is spectacular and the look to the mountain on the other side can sometimes give you views of sheep and other animals strolling the mountain side. I would recommend going in the morning when there can be a little bit of fog and also at sunset. Both times are beautiful.

Super beautiful and although the wind was really fast today, we could see the whales through the chop and then they were gone. On a nicer day, this place would be totally awesome since you can go down to the water and climb on rocks to get good vantages!

Great place to explore. My kids loved going there and looking at the Beluga whales. You do have to really look hard enough and if you blink you could miss them. Highly recommend visiting Beluga Point.

Beluga point was an amazing place to whale watch, catch the Alaskan rail line go past, and watch the sunset all in one. The mountains in the background and the ability to walk right down to the water was second to none !

Beautiful scenic stop. Great view of the bay. You can cross the railroad at your own risk and go to the beach as well and climb the small rock outcropping for great views

Nice viewpoint on the way to Whittier from anchorage. You can get a breathtaking view of the entire sound. If youre there at the right time and if youre lucky, you may be able to spot some whales in the water. Its a quick roadside stop for a beautiful view.

Excellent site to visit for EVERYONE! Great view of the Cook Inlet, and good photo opportunities. My 1st wife, now deceased, had her ashes spread here. I visit whenever I can.

Lovely location. Pathway was easy to walk on. Picture perfect.

No sitings this time of year but the scenary is so beautiful it didnt really matter

One of our favorite spots to go. The scenery is absolutely stunning. There are tons of trails on Seward Highway to pull of and hike. Beluga point is a place that is great for photographers, families, and tourist. Bring a jacket because you will get quite the chill from the wind coming of the ice , cold water.

Awesome place on the sunset. It is a beautiful and windy. In a winter you should wear the warm clothes, because the wind is very cold!

Beautiful scenic viewing area of Turnagain arm! Wasnt able to see any Belugas but it was still a Gorgeous visit.

Very nice photo opportunity. Very nice views and I had fun. There is a little trail leading out further. Very relaxing.

Gorgeous place to stop and take pictures. Very windy and wet, so take a rain coat. Loved it

Beautiful view of turnagain arm, but no belugas in sight.

One of my familys favorites! Great stop to stretch the legs, check out the water and have a good look both ways along the inlet. Make sure its clear when you pull back on the highway and get up to speed quickly as its on a busy bend.

Really nice spot along the road to Whittier. Has great vistas. To one side the mountains and to the other the open waters with the occasional whale sightings. You can even see some of the glaciers in the distance. It provides an excellent stop along the road to enjoy the views and stretch out on a short hike.

Wonderful views. Stunning ocean and maintains panorama. Nice little walk to climb on the rocks. Saw black bear and sheep on the near cliffs.

I was spending a day driving around the Anchorage area after traveling for six days up through Fairbanks and Denali. This was a trip to photograph Alaska in February expecting to see snow and the accompanying weather. :) I had not been disappointed and was treated to fairly pleasant weather, which was not the case the week before. So I drove south on my way to the nature center and started to see what beauty lies just outside of Anchorage. I was going to drive straight to the center but ultimately spent more than an hour stopping several places to capture the view from close to the road on the many road side stops provided by the highway department. These are a few.

Love this place. One of the best views on tge way to Girdwood. Definitely worth the stop!

Beautiful. Stunning views of ocean and mountains. Short but challenging climb on rocks for even better view. Often windy, bring a jacket.

Easy parking, a few binocular stands, didnt see any belugas when we went though

Has a pull off parking area and great view of the mountains across the water.

Beautiful, however the bore tide did not come in when it was scheduled so we didnt see any belugas. Still very fun!

The Beluga Point Site is an archaeological site located along the Turnagain Arm of Cook Inlet. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Its named for the Belugas spotted here from July to August to feed on Salmon.

Awesome views better signs would helpful comes up quick at 60

Beautiful area. Lots of rocks to climb. The bite tide the day we went was underwhelming (july 4) but otherwise lovely.

My second time here, love this little stop by the side of the road. Its a great chance for whoevers driving to get to take in the beautiful sights along this route. No bathrooms. Theres adequate parking, then you can cross over the railroad tracks to a rocky area, with a little beach. Can get medium windy.

Outstanding view. Pictures dont do it justice

Nice views, beach with stone pebbles. Free parking.

Wish they had retroom facility. But its one of my favorite places to go for a short escape.

Nice viewpoint. Great road for stops and scenery. Enjoyed the drive and the viewpoints even with limited visibility. I would have loved to see the whales but none were there.

Right off the highway with plenty of parking. Great views of the bay and a small beach nearby.

Great views, very close to southern Anchorage - all nature lovers should make the drive for a quick visit

Peak is breathtaking. On the rock opposite the point, I saw an eagle and some dall sheep in the mountain rock!... and I got there before the tour buses so it was a bit silent. A must do while in Anchorage!

Really great spot to see Beluga Whales come into our waters!

Nicest view on the area! If you wanna stop to appreciate the landscape, you definitely should do it there!

A nice place to visit. We saw no whales but watching the Bore Tide is pretty cool

Other than the construction, such a relaxing place.

I recommend stopping by at this viewpoint and enjoy the scenic views! The railroad track, the mountains in the backdrop and the beach/ocean is a beautiful and relaxing pitstop.

Plain out beautiful mother nature!

Wow. Ice is moving past at an impressive clip with the tide, Id guess 3 mph at least. A beautiful spot. No belugas today though.

Took the time to just stop and enjoy the incredible beauty of the area. Inbound tide time is the perfect time to sit on the rocks and watch. Very peaceful

It was a beautiful scenic view. The parking area wasnt too busy. Its a little windy which may make it colder than the temperature outside. If you are close to or visiting Anchorage, this is a definite must see.

Another wonderful spot for watching for whales chase the salmon in the late spring early summer.

Beautiful place to stop and see nature. Honestly the entire Seward Hwy is full of sights like this, and it is difficult to keep your eyes on the road the entire drive.

Beautiful spot and really easy to pull over and appreciate the view. Fairly easy to walk down to the rocks as well.

Seen whales and dall sheep here. It can get pretty windy, so bring a jacket, hat and gloves.

Some people refer to Alaska as beautiful and a wonderland. I think Majestic sums it up nicely. Beluga point is full of photo opportunity and gorgeous views. My wife and I enjoy coming here for a walk in summer or winter.

Amazing stop to see some amazing views. Mt. Denali is visible from this point as well on a clear day.

Created everlasting memories with my loved ones. I wish that whoever has adopted this site, updates the telescope thingys, because we couldnt use them to see any billygoats on the mountainside. Other than that, a magical place!

Not too windy and easy to get to

I always enjoy the beauty of this location.

A nice place to visit and a great place to enjoy the scenery on the bike trail.

Great spot to stop on the way to Girdwood to enjoy the Turnigan arm view. I have tried to spot belugas when they come through, but sadly haven’t had luck! It’s always nice to stop and watch the bore tide regardless.

There were no Beluga whales visible in the cold winter month of February. If they are out there they are well camouflaged among the floating chunks of ice. The large tidal changes are clearly evident along the shores here at low tide. If you want to see the Belugas then bring binoculars and wait until Summertime.

Great resting point heading down south to homer or Seward! Windy though... Bring a jacket year round and enjoy the rock island, fast tides, and the mystery that lay in the distance

Beautiful. Must see place!

Excellent sight seeing place. Reminds you of the Norwegian Fjords

Very beautiful watching begining of the sunset

If youre looking for a view of the Turnagain Arm and to stretch your legs then Beluga Point is a great stop.No restrooms or water here. There are telescopes for viewing Belugas, however the Belugas are not here most of the year. If you see Beluga Whales then youre lucky. Most of the time I see visitors searching for sheep in the Chugach mountains.Be careful crossing the railroad tracks. The Alaska Railroad trains come through here regularly. Dont forget to wave when the train goes by.Beluga Point is surrounded by silt, so be careful walking along the rocks. The silt is like quicksand, so the more you move the more youll sink.Parking is Free!If this review was helpful please click the Like button.

Loved the view of ocean from this point.

Its a really serene location. We didnt see any beluga whales but got some really pretty pictures.

Right on highway 1, but there are plenty of spots to pull off and get some great photos of the scenery.

Summer Solstice and black sand beaches at low tide is beautiful.

Great place to stop, stretch your legs, and explore on the way to Girdwood or farther south. The view is always breathtaking.

Beautiful view! And when the tide is in you often can see Belugas. Lovely drive by the water with spectacular scenery. Sometimes you can see Dall sheep on the hillside above the highway. Beluga point is enroute to Girdwood & the Wildlife Conservation Center.

Beluga usually come about an hour after the tide comes in.

Great views of mountains & we even saw some seals playing. Bring binoculars or a zoom lens because both tourist viewfinders were broken.

Place to view sunset perfectly

Go in the evening we saw whales and a sunset SO nice!!

Beautiful view & we visited in August so we we able to climb to the other side. There is plenty of parking & a spring with very tasty water just a little beyond Beluga Point if you’re leaving Anchorage. You may be fortunate and see some whale activities so if you have binoculars you may want to bring them with you. Whales or no whales it is a great view & very close to a great spring so a fun little trip if you’re in Anchorage or nearby.

Easy to explore stop off the Seward Highway. Worth getting out and exploring a bit. Good spot to see belugas and the bore tide.

What a great stop along the road. If only we could have had a clear day. Still spectacular

When traveling to or from Anchorage, plan for an extra 15-30 minutes to stop off at Beluga Point. After parking, scale down to the rocky coast and take in the view with hopes of those white water wonders. There are no promises of beluga sightings, however, we got lucky both times we passed through in August and they were all close to the shore.Great times to go are in the morning and near sunset.

Very pretty. That location and the entire road from Anchorage to Seward is a must see. Put it on your bucket list!

This was a a great place to stop to take in the amazing views.

Beautiful view of Cook Inlet. It does get very windy here, though.

Well its actually incredibly beautiful here even though I didnt get to see a whale it was definitely worth the drive out there

You can practically see a lot of Beluga whales here.

Nice little roadside park. Great views! A little dangerous getting back on the highway!

Really great place for whale watching

The drive through Alaskas Seward highway to get to Beluga Point Sight is beautiful sight to see.

Beautiful views , it’s a great place to stop here and enjoy the ocean and sunset views .

Great place to hang out.

Its a gorgeous place to go outside of Anchorage
