Homer Harbor Expansion Study
The Proposed Harbor Expansion would create a new large vessel harbor on the north side of Homer’s existing Small Boat Harbor. A natural shelf and local source of rock makes construction of a harbor basin with large vessel slips for vessels 80′-200′ and secure homeport and layover accommodations for US Coast Guard assets feasible. Homer’s central, road-connected location, renowned marine tradesmen and ice free conditions make it an ideal location.
