Eagle Beach, situated 27 miles north of Juneau, is a favored local camping and leisure spot. Bordered by majestic snow-capped mountains, it's an ideal place for a picnic. The beach extends alongside the Eagle River estuary, a summer haven for spawning salmon that attracts bald eagles and bears, offering fantastic wildlife sightings. Keep an eye out for seals and sea lions in the water.
