About This Access Site
Beach Lake is a peaceful, uncrowded lake located about 20 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska. This lake offers a scenic paddling experience with stunning views of the Chugach Mountains. The public boat ramp provides easy access for kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats.

The lake is roughly 1.5 miles long and 0.5 miles wide, with calm, protected waters suitable for beginners and families. There is no large beach or recreation area, so the lake is mainly used for paddling and fishing. Rentals of kayaks, canoes, and stand-up paddleboards are available from local outfitters like AK Paddlesports.

Parking and launching are available at the public boat ramp. Fees may apply, but specific details are not available. Paddlers and boaters should use caution, as weather and water conditions can change quickly in this region.
