After a quick briefing, paddle around the calm turquoise waters, enjoying beautiful mountain vistas as you keep an eye out for sea otters, seals, bald eagles and leaping salmon. From mid-July to early-September, you can stop and take a short walk alongside Tonsina Creek to view a salmon spawning stream.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

From the other, catch dramatic mountain views, from snow-capped peaks to deep mountain valleys.

Keep an eye out for humpbacks breaching in the distance, sending a massive plume of water into the air, and orcas emerging from the pristine waters of the fjord. There\u2019s plenty of wildlife to be seen overhead as well with bald eagles soaring through the skies. On shore, keep an eye out for black oystercatchers, bears, moose, and puffins as you sail along the coastline.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.

It\u2019s an easy walk to Exit Glacier which forms a natural ramp for those wanting to hike the Harding Icefield. The icefield is one of four major icecaps in the United States and is believed to be a remnant of the Pleistocene ice masses that once covered half of Alaska.

Perhaps a walk along the Homer Spit that juts out into Kachemak Bay, a unique geographical feature shaped by tidal swells, glaciers, and earthquakes, or an afternoon browsing the local shops. You could also explore the harbour or enjoy some cuisine such as reindeer, caribou, king crab and, of course, halibut.
