Mariner Park

Awesome Spot on Homer Spit, Camp Right on the Beach with Awesome Views, was not to Crowded in July. Went Halibut From there and had 7 Humpback Whales surrounding our Boat….. What an Adventure

We are in the shoulder season and most camps on the spit are closed. This one has beautiful views of the bay and there weren’t many people here the night we stayed. We rv camped. Some people brought their horses to the day use side and were riding at sunset.

Perfect

With the exception of the view of your neighbors the ocean is beautiful. There are so many things to find at the city campground. Toilets are open seasonally. 34 campsites, day use area, and a gazebo to rent. They are always looking toward improvements. This is a great place to camp and spend the day beach combing or enjoying all the shops and wonders of this little town on the water.

I only stayed here for one night. We had planned to stay a second, but the wind was so bad that it blew over our tent and woke us up at night. It was definitely a gorgeous view, and if we had known what to expect it might not have been so bad!

This is my family's 3rd year camping on the Homer Spit. We love it every year. Who wouldn't love waking up and going to sleep looking at the ocean?! It does get a bit windy, but it keeps away the famous Alaskan mosquitoes and provides a great opportunity to watch the para-surfers. The sand is great and the tide goes out far, providing fun exploration activities for kids! It can get a little loud with the nearby road, but you get used to it. There are nearby port-a-potties (no showers) and it is only $10 a night per tent. Camping is on a first-come basis and can be a bit crowded on holiday weekends. Overall, the views are awesome and a great place to pitch a tent!
