Point Bridget State Park is located 39 miles north of Juneau. Fishing is excellent during salmon runs in the fall off Berner's Bay beaches and in Cowee Creek. Beachcombing, wildlife viewing, hiking, and boating are among the diverse opportunities available. There are bears in the area, so please be aware and use caution.

The average temperatures in this area are 55° to 70° F during the spring and summer. High humidity and a high average rainfall make for a wet environment.
