FAQ
Scenic, round-trip boat transportation is arranged for you from Homer Harbor to Stillpoint Lodge in Halibut Cove. The voyage usually takes about 30-minutes and often includes stops for wildlife viewing along the way. Vehicle ground transfer from Homer Airport to Homer Harbor is provided if needed.
Chances are that you're familiar with Alaska's harsh winter weather, so you'll avoid visiting the state during that particular time of year. However, you might not realize that Alaska has more daylight than other states, which might be a bit jarring for outsiders. The further north you go when visiting the state, the more daylight you'll experience. Whether more daylight is a pro or a con is really up to you. But if you visit north of Fairbanks, you'll experience 24 hours of daylight per day. Obviously, this will change slightly from season to season, but if you have a hard time sleeping during the day, make sure to stay at a lodge that has blackout curtains!
One way or another, it's hard to miss interacting with animals during an Alaska vacation; and if you skipped the state's natural, wild beauty, you'd be missing out. Many people visit the state to go fishing, ahead of which you will want to make sure that you have the right licenses. You certainly won't want to miss out on hiking, where you may encounter moose, wolves, or even bears; though obviously, you won't want to get too close! The key to staying safe during these types of experiences is hiking with a well-trained guide. But if that sounds a bit too wild for you, there are plenty of other experiences you can try that are unique to Alaska. For example, you might want to follow in the footsteps of Alaskans before you and go dog-sledding!
Even during the summer, you may experience extreme weather when visiting Alaska, and storms can hit quickly and without much warning. It's best to bring layers on your Alaska vacation. That way, if there's a cold snap during your warm-weather vacation, you can layer up and stay warm. Bring wool socks, heavy gloves, and boots that are ready for snow and mud alike. This is key not only to comfort but safety as well.
Don't be intimidated if you're going on your first Alaska vacation. It will offer you once in a lifetime experiences; just be prepared for something different!
