FREE TATTOO PATTERNS FROM ALASKA

THE ARTISTS OF HALIBUT COVE

...and more free tattoo patterns




When planning your next Alaska vacation, consider the artsy little town of Halibut Cove a must-see destination.

Halibut Cove is located in beautiful Kachemak Bay State Park on the Kenai Peninsula, six miles southeast of Homer.

The Cove is a little-known enchanted hideaway with a year round population of less than 50 people. The town is so small that the United States Census Bureau does not recognize it as a town. Halibut Cove is known on census records as merely a "Census Designated Place" (CDP).

Roughly one third of the town's residents are professional artists, so the community is alive with local businesses, and has no less than three art galleries. The town also features a floating post office, as well as a floating coffee shop.

Kachemak Bay State Park (Alaska's oldest State Park) spans 400,000 acres of mountains, glaciers, forests, coastline and ocean. The Cove is alive with sea otters, harbor seals, porpoises and a number of whale species.

Even though accessible only by boat, Halibut Cove is a very popular destination for tourists from all over the world.

Still, it remains a peaceful sanctuary and a quiet spiritual retreat, as the local residents have a long standing tradition of maintaining the area's serene and natural beauty.

TOWN DEMOGRAPHICS:

The total land area of Halibut Cove is only about eight square miles.

The ZIP code of Halibut Cove Alaska is 99603.
