Homer Spit

08/05 -08/07/19 We made a brief stop on the way out of Seward at a small Weir where we watched the Sockeye salmon leaping to swim upstream to spawn. We headed across the Kenai Peninsula and on down to Homer. We drove out to the Spit and although very touristy it is a fun place to visit and heck we are tourists. Homer is know for it’s marvelous Halibut fishing but at over $300 per person for a charter we opted to fish from shore. No Luck. We did however purchase some wonderful fresh Halibut and Scallops and spent time bike riding, watching the local fisherman, SUP surfers, and taking walks along the elevated boardwalks through the many shops that line the Spit out to Lands End, the southern most point of the Kenai Peninsula. We all enjoyed and admired the unique and unusual sites around the Spit each in our own way. Of Course our visit was not complete without a required stop at the Salty Dog Saloon where we added our names to the thousands of others who have tacked a dollar bill up on the walls, ceilings, and doors of this infamous bar.
