When I go to any new place or town, I make it a priority to check out the local used bookstores…read more This bookstore was one of the most unique and special ones I've ever come across. The selection of rare and old books was above and beyond anything I've seen in any other store before. I don't know if I'll ever see a store with this unique kind of vibe again. The owner was a very nice person as well, and if I ever find myself back in Alaska, I will definitely be back. This is a must visit bookstore.

Walking into this bookstore feels like walking into another dimension -- picture Ollivander's wand…read moreshop from Harry Potter but with books instead of wands! The owner is so kind and gave me a ton of great book suggestions. I had such a great experience that I had to come back the next day to show the place to my mother and buy some more books! Also the prices are unbeatable and there is a huge selection of literature. I seriously cannot recommend this store enough!!

I've bought stuff here a couple times... the store is kinda irresistible if you're a chick. But…read moredamn its overpriced. And the last time I was there the gal that waited on me was kinda rude/distracted when she waited on me. No thank you or acknowledgement of any kind. I did like that social distancing and masks are enforced in the store, which is not the norm in Homer. I've gotten a lot of cool gifts, nautical themed stuffed animals and knickknacks, and clothing here over the years. I finally scored a really nice fleece lined Salty Dawg zip up that I am practically living in these days- its luscious!

Such a great gift shop! Right off the pier, Salty Girls has a big selection of souvenirs, from…read moreshirts to hats to mugs to bobbles. Prices aren't bad for a tourist shop in Homer, the owner is really helpful, and the selection of products is fantastic. There were too many cute/shiny/funny/interesting products to decide what I wanted and I had to go back a couple times... If you're a shopper or not, Salty Girls is just a great stop. *And if you're looking for Salty Dawg attire, Salty Girls has a much bigger selection than Salty Dawg Saloon next door*

We were bopping around Homer and she was looking for some Barbara Lavallee greeting cards. We stopped in and sure enough they had them and so much more. The lady running the place was friendly, helpful and engaging. Wonderful place and a really good collection of Alaska art. Well worth the stop if only to browse.

I visited the Salmon Sisters Flagship store over the summer, it is a cute shop to visit in Homer…read more The shop has a plethora of items that you may or may not see at other shops on the spit, but I loved the salmon earrings I wound up ordering from the once I got home because I couldn't stop thinking about them! The shop is conveniently located with ample parking. Love supporting fellow Alaskans, so keep it up ladies!

Bear Country Fishing Village's gift shop and Big Bear Halibut Charters share real estate on the…read moreHomer Spit. The gift shop is an pleasant and unexpected companion to the fishing charter. By Homer standards, the gift shop is huge and yet it's unadvertised as though it were an after-thought. Bear Country is the most well-rounded Alaska themed shop on the Homer Spit boardwalk. They have the biggest variety of average-man's Alaska made and Alaska themed gifts on the Spit. Bear Country is primarily authentically Alaskan, which really surprised me. I'll forgive them for their large collection of made-in-China Alaska t-shirts in light of their array of handicrafts. I loved that they had Alaskan-made knitted and crocheted items, pottery and crafts that included locally found driftwood, sea glass and lava rock. There was a nice selection of affordable handmade jewelery, bric-a-brac and soaps. Bear Country gift shop is a treasure in it's own right!
