Known as the place where the road ends and the sea begins, the town of Homer is
located on Kachemak
Bay at the foot of the Kenai Mountains. One of the town's unique features
is the Homer
Spit, a narrow stretch of land that extends into the bay and features a port
as well as a number of fishing and boat charters. The annual summer-long Jackpot
Halibut Derby, one of Alaska's
biggest fishing contests, is an event in which anglers buy tickets before trying
for the biggest catch. With opportunities to see black bears, bald eagles, killer
whales and more, wildlife viewing is another reason visitors come to Homer. Homer's
avian population is feted every year at the Kachemak
Bay Shorebird Festival, a three-day event with workshops, expert speakers
and bay cruises. For a journey through Homer's history and culture, visit the
Pratt
Museum.
