KWT IS UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP

We are excited to offer free WIFI, a light snack and friendly service. Our shuttle drivers and boat crewman are happy to assist with the loading and stowing of luggage, all the while providing a safe and friendly environment.

Katmai Water Taxi is the official water transportation to Brooks Falls within Katmai National Park. Operating late June – late September weather/wind permitting. Upon your arrival in King Salmon, you will be shuttled from King Salmon Airport, approved lodging, or approved shuttle stops to the Lake Camp Boat Launch. There you will cruise across scenic Naknek Lake (45 min) to Brooks Camp for your bear viewing, hiking or fishing adventure.

The water taxi leaves Lake Camp Boat Launch every odd hour starting at 7 AM, with the last departure at 5 PM (subject to change based on weather, wind and light conditions). The water taxi returns from Brooks Camp every even hour starting at 8 AM, with the last pick up at 6 PM.

Katmai Water Taxi is a transportation service only. Once you disembark the boat, you will be escorted by our boat crewman to the Brooks Camp Visitor Center. If needed, you will participate in the bear viewing orientation class hosted by Katmai National Park staff.
