Cruise Port Guide · 8 cruises visit Homer →
The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Fly by floatplane deep into Katmai National Park to witness grizzly bears catching sockeye salmon mid-leap at the world-famous Brooks Falls — one of the most iconic wildlife spectacles on the planet.
Water-taxi across Kachemak Bay then hike to the ice-blue terminus of Grewingk Glacier — an other-worldly wilderness lake rimmed with calving ice, accessible only by boat and boot.
Drop lines in the rich, cold waters of Kachemak Bay and Cook Inlet aboard a dedicated sportfishing charter — Homer is the undisputed halibut capital of the world, and a day on the water with expert crew is utterly unforgettable.
Paddle through the glassy, kelp-laced waters of Kachemak Bay with a master guide — sea otters, harbor seals, and Dall's porpoises are regular companions on this intimate wilderness journey.
Escape the modern world entirely by crossing Kachemak Bay to Seldovia — a charming, road-inaccessible fishing village with boardwalk history, local galleries, and an end-of-the-earth tranquility that Homer's coast is famous for.
Board a naturalist-led small vessel for a scenic wildlife cruise through Kachemak Bay, circling the legendary Gull Island seabird rookery and scanning the bay's rich waters for otters, porpoises, and orcas.
