South Tooth Cove is a small, remote backcountry camping site in Aialik Bay within Kenai Fjords National Park, accessible only by kayak or water taxi. The cove offers limited camping space at its back, making it ideal for small groups seeking solitude. The site features crystal-clear water perfect for viewing intertidal marine life. Due to the absence of large trees, bear-resistant food canisters are required for all food storage. The cove provides a peaceful setting surrounded by dramatic coastal scenery typical of Aialik Bay. Best suited for experienced sea kayakers comfortable with backcountry camping and proper wildlife safety protocols. The pristine waters and intimate setting make this an excellent choice for paddlers looking to explore the less-visited corners of Kenai Fjords National Park.
