The Homer spit is a destination in and of itself! All manner of businesses thrive there. You can get a halibut charter, a flightseeing trip, a bear-watching trip, park your RV, stay at a resort, or eat a fine meal.

Below: The Alaska Ferry is docked at the Homer dock. You can take this ferry to any Alaskan Port or down to the lower 48 and Bellingham, Washington.

We stopped to order smoked salmon.

Locals recommended The Coal Point Trading Company for smoked salmon to be shipped. They were right! Below: Alaskan lumber awaits shipment to the orient.
