    The town should sell shirts that say “I came here just for the halibut.”

    One of the few places you've been that I've been to as well! I visited Alaska in 1986 (can't believe that's almost 40 years ago!) and took a day trip to Homer. I still remember some of the spots you include here. And of course, the mountains are still as stunning as ever. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    Went in 2021 and wish I had spent more time in Homer! We spent most of the day hiking Grace Ridge acrross the harbor and I have zero regrets about that but more time in Homer would have been nice! I could spend a whole week out there!
