Aialik Glacier

Aialik Glacier is a tidewater glacier in Kenai Fjords National Park on Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula, flowing from the Harding Icefield into Aialik Bay. Slightly more than 15 miles from Seward, it is the largest glacier in the bay and one of the prominent ice features shaped by the region’s defining ice mass. Its face is known for active calving, especially in May and June, when ice breaks into the water, although it is considered fairly stable overall. Aialik Glacier also helps define the visual character of the park and stands as a notable example of the glaciated fjord landscape around Seward.
