I'll be east of Homer this Saturday with wife and son for 2 weeks.  I see on the map there is a river at the mouth of the bay, is that accessible by vehicle, foot?  Doesn't look like it.  Fishing any good there?  I've read about the Anchor River and all it's problems, I'll guess I'll find out when I get there.  I have fished back the Russian and Kasilof / Deep Creek so I may go back there.

This will be 3rd trip to AK, new to this area though, wanted to explore something new.  We have a Halibut charter booked with North Country and plan to hike a lot.  Anything I need to see or suggest to do in the area.  Any off the beaten paths hikes or places to go?

Thank you Alaskans yall rock!

East of Homer,  will put you   between Fritz creek and  Fox river.
 About 18  miles East of Homer, you can park at Falls creek rd , and walk or ride   to Caribou Lake.

  When dry  people drive  pickups  out there,  but mostly 4 wheelers and snowmachines access.

tenfor thanks

If you  make it out on the  Homer Spit,    make an attempt to get into Little Mermaid for lunch or dinner.
They  fill up quick, but will let you eat at  table outside,  on the first boardwalk on the LEFT  ( north ) side of spit.

.  Downtown Homer, the best   dinner restaurant is CUPS,  on Pioneer Ave.


Local  Homer Brewing Company  is  on Lakeshore drive, a few blocks from base of Homer Spit.
