Top Homer On the Water

Maximize time in Homer, Alaska with a Kachemak Bay wildlife tour. Choose between two experiences: a hike to a glacier lake in Kachemak Bay State Park or a wildlife-focused boat tour with views of the Kenai Mountains. Aboard the boat, keep an eye out for sea otters, humpback whales, puffins, and much more. Learn about the local ecosystem during both itinerary options.

Dip your paddle into the calm, turquoise waters of the Homer Boat Harbor for an hour or two of total relaxation bliss. Nestled right on the famous Homer Spit, our harbor paddle is a serene, beginner-friendly way to experience Alaska’s coastal life from a stable packraft. Because the harbor is fully protected from open ocean swells, you’ll enjoy a smooth, peaceful ride surrounded by stunning scenery, historic fishing vessels, and bustling maritime culture. Guided by a knowledgeable local who knows the harbor inside and out, you’ll have a front-row seat to Homer's vibrant ecosystem—from glacier views, soaring bald eagles to playful sea otters floating right alongside your raft.
