It’s the southern anchor of the Kenai Peninsula — a five‑hour drive that rewards every mile with ocean views, halibut, and sunsets that make you question your life choices (in a good way).What to Expect:Day 1: Take the Seward and Sterling Highways south. Stop for lunch at Gwin’s Lodge in Cooper Landing (it’s practically Alaskan law). Arrive in Homer, check into Land’s End Resort or one of the Homer Spit cabins, then stroll the beach. End the night at the Salty Dawg Saloon, where the walls are covered in signed dollar bills and the stories are worth more than any of them.Day 2: Charter a halibut fishing trip (Blue Harvest, North Country Charters) or spend the day exploring local galleries and the Pratt Museum. Lunch at Captain Pattie’s Fish House or have your catch cooked to order. Dinner at AJ’s OldTown Steakhouse & Tavern, where live music meets surf‑n‑turf.Day 3: Grab breakfast at Two Sisters Bakery (cinnamon rolls that haunt dreams). Optional stop at Anchor Point, the westernmost driveable spot in North America, before the return north.Local Tip: Bring a cooler — you will come back with fish.Pro Tip: The view of Kachemak Bay at sunset will break your camera’s will to live.
