Homer: Arrival, information and getting around
Ferries arrive at the end of the Spit from Seldovia, Kodiak and Seward. Homer Stage Lines (tel 907/235-2252) runs a daily bus service between Anchorage and Homer for $45 each way.Most hotels, restaurants and shops are in town, while almost all of the fishing charter and tour operators can be found along the twee boardwalks of the Spit. In summer, the infrequent Homer Trolley links the two, though it may be quicker to hitch or rent a mountain bike from Homer Saw & Cycle, 1532 Ocean Drive (tel 907/235-8406; $25 per day). The main visitor center is at 135 Sterling Hwy (summer Mon-Fri 9am-8pm, Sat & Sun 10am-6pm; tel 907/235-7740, ).
