The Alaska Peninsula (also called Aleut Peninsula or Aleutian Peninsula, Aleut: Alasxix̂; Sugpiaq: Aluuwiq, Al'uwiq) is a peninsula extending about 497 mi (800 km) to the southwest from the mainland of Alaska and ending in the Aleutian Islands. The peninsula separates the Pacific Ocean from Bristol Bay, an arm of the Bering Sea.

The Lake and Peninsula borough, the Alaskan equivalent of a county, is named after the peninsula.

In 1975 the surface of the crater lake was at an elevation of about 4,055 feet (1,236 m), and the estimated elevation of the caldera floor is about 3,260 ft (995 m).
