We liked it a lot. Very pretty inside and full of information. Not real big and we did not have a chance to do the outdoor walk which was a bummer. Glad we stopped and checked it out.

Do not miss this in Homer. You will learn more there in a couple of hours than anyplace else. The Homer are is special and the center highlights that. Nice walking trail along the water and through the headlands.

We could have spent so much more time with this group - fabulous tours they have of the Alaskan coastline and natural habitat. Be sure to check out their tidepool nature walks.

Huge starfish, anemonies, fish, shellfish...The pilings and under the docks were thick with life and our tour guide (a young college art major) did a fantastic job of showing and telling us all about it. It was one of the most fun and educational things I did in Homer.

I came upon this Center while walking around town and am so glad I did. I found the staff to be very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

Full day of hiking and exploring for 6 kids (ages 7-14), my mother who is 74, and 5 middle age types. We ate our way through the morning hike. I had no idea that it would be an edible berry, flower, root tour and that made the day for me. Must have tried 20 different items including the watermelon berry... More

It is housed in a beautiful building, and what they do have is very well done. But it is very small, and will only take you a short amount of time see it all. Good afternoon entertainment, and an easy learning opportunity for older kids.

We did the day tour and learned a lot from our exploration of the tidal pools and our nature hike up to the top of the island. Who knew how much lurks beneath those rocks! What people should be aware of is the physical exertion that will be needed to get to the tidal pools (rocky beaches covered with seaweed,... More
