Discover Oceans and Seas, Beaufort Sea

The Beaufort Sea is a part of the Arctic Ocean located off the northern coast of Alaska and Canada. It is approximately 500,000 square kilometers in size.

The Beaufort Sea has been occupied by Indigenous peoples for thousands of years and is of great cultural importance to them.

The Beaufort Sea is home to a diverse range of marine species, including walrus, seals, whales, and polar bears. It is also home to some endangered species such as the bowhead whale and Steller's eider.

The Beaufort Sea is a key source of aquatic resources for local communities and is important for global fisheries.

The Beaufort Sea is an increasingly popular tourist destination due to its natural beauty and wildlife.

Unfortunately, the Beaufort Sea is also a site of oil and gas exploration, which presents a threat to the local environment.

Pollution from shipping activities and Arctic warming are also threats to the Beaufort Sea.
