Homer Harbor is the hub of the Homer Spit. Here, Kachemak Bay holds one of the largest harbors in the state, with almost a thousand slips for a variety of vessels, large and small.
This guided walk provides an overview of Homer Harbor, its history, the various types of boats that operate from the port, and the role the harbor plays in the community.
Keep an eye out for the wildlife that lives in the marina and in the surroundings — sea otters, harbor seals, bald eagles, and black-legged kittiwakes.
Interpretative stops allow you to discuss the geography surrounding the harbor, its human history, and the role of tourism on the Homer Spit.
