Shoreline Views


There were quite a few wonderful views of the shore and shops along the Spit.  In all, this is an incredibly relaxing place to spend a few days.  And, we were so lucky – the weather was perfect the entire time we were there!

 
We were camping on what I think was the nicer side of the Spit.  It wasn’t as windy and the waves gently washed the shore, instead of crashing against it.  The effect of the tide wasn’t that dramatic on this side, too.  Or, that’s the way it seemed to me!

 
Here’s another view of the pebble beach and some beach grass of sorts.  Add the boat heading out into the bay, and you have perfection!

 
Just down from our campsite was a collection of seashells.  I imagine some little kid walking the beach, picking up these treasures, stacking them outside their camping area…..and then, as kids tend to be, forget about them. 

 
Homer Spit has several boardwalks of shops, restaurants and pubs.  Here’s one image of one of the quaint boardwalks near our campground.  I created a painting of it because that effect just seems to add to the charm of it.
Enjoy!
