Located just above high tide, Deep Creek welcomes all deep sea fishermen, and beach combers alike. This Is the place for you. This campsite is one of the main hubs for people looking to hunt halibut and deep sea King salmon.

Most visitors to this campsite are out for some fishing. With a boat launch for both small craft and Tractor Launching for bigger watercraft this site sees a lot of ocean going boats trying their hand at some of the better central peninsula halibut fishing. This is also a popular location for guides to launch out of out to do the same. Those looking to try theIr hand at salmon fishing can try droppIng a line in Deep Creek as well.

For those not looking at hitting the water, there is beach combing to be done. Sandy tidal flats during low tide make for good views and fun places to walk dogs or explore. Rocky higher beach sections offer agate hunting possibilities. Evenings offer spectacular Cook Inlet sunsets with Mt Iliamna as a backdrop.

I enjoy making a trip or two down to this area during the summer for a day trip. the beaches can be quite beautiful and depending on the time of year relaxing. Summer months turn this campground into a hustling, and bustling fisherman’s paradise. Because of that, unless your there to fish I would tend to avoid this campsite.
