kazda Posted November 9, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Hi Does anybody have any recommendations where I can buy binoculars in Anchorage before heading off to Whittier for our cruise. Preferably in the downtown area. Only looking to spend around $150 max as will only be using them on the cruise. Thanks in advance Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKStafford Posted November 9, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Hmmm... Downtow? Maybe 6th Ave Outfitters? Or if you don't mind doing a cab, there's Cabela's, Bass Pro, Fred Meyer's, Walmart, Mt. View Sports and Sportsman Warehouse. And Sports Authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazda Posted November 9, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Since there does not appear to be a sporting stores in AK downtown area (staying at Hotel Captain Cook) I will definitely get a cab to the best store. Taking into account we would only want to visit 1 store, Which would be the best store for variety and different price points from the suggestions provided by AKstafford ' Cabela's, Bass Pro, Fred Meyer's, Walmart, Mt. View Sports and Sportsman Warehouse. And Sports Authority. ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chenega Posted November 9, 2015 #4 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Stewart's Photo in downtown Anchorage on 4th avenue also has binoculars. They are a short way from the Captain Cook Hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaciers Posted November 9, 2015 #5 Share Posted November 9, 2015 For walking, 6th Avenue Outfitters would have the best selection downtown. Stewarts has some Nikon binocs but a very limited selection. I do shop at Stewarts for camera accessories and their prices are very comparable to Amazon. Fred Meyer on Northern Lights Blvd would be the next closest place but would require a cab that would probably be about $15-20 each way. Walmart in Midtown would be about the same. The other stores would be $20-25 each way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were going to take a taxi, probably heading to Bass Pro would be your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
