Across the bay from Homer Alaska is a whole different world to experience. I have wonderful childhood memories of a "paradise untouched".  The water is clear and the mountains literally swoop down and touch the sea.

With the exception of Seldovia, there are no roads across the bay from Homer. Boats and Float Planes are the only means of transportation in and out of the many bays and coves. 

Before venturing into this Alaskan wonderland it is always wise to check the tide charts. It is very easy to find your self unable to get out of a cove, scraping bottom on your boat. You must be very careful. Sometimes, even in high tide, if you are unfamiliar with the waters there can be unseen rocks that stick up. The photo on the right is Little Tutka Bay at low tide...a great example!

If you're visiting Homer, don't pass up the chance to take a trip "Across The Bay".
