Kitefest Alaska 2008: Directions






	From Outside Alaska The quickest way to get to Alaska is to fly, once in Alaska use the many commuter flight services. The most pleasant is a long leisurely drive up the Alaskan/Canadian Hwy. It’s 2,500 miles and takes 50 hours if you only stop for gas. A better time frame is about 2 weeks. Another way to reach Homer is via the ferry, which takes about 3-4 days. It leaves from Bellingham Washington all summer.



	From Within Alaska From Anchorage follow the Seward Hwy (AK-1) South about 90 miles. At the junction to Seward, stay right then travel another 130 or so miles. Once in Homer, stay on the Hwy. (Bypass) and follow it out to the Homer Spit. Mariner Park is at the base of the Spit on the right.
