Description
The famous tractor launching at Anchor Point, Alaska at Cook Inlet.
Visitors of all ages enjoy watching the boats being launched into the Cook Inlet via tractors from the Anchor Point beach. The tractor launch is located in the Anchor River State Recreation Area, which is also home to five pristine campgrounds, well-equipped and maintained RV parks, and of course a stretch of the Anchor River. The tractor launch runs from the last Saturday in April until Labor Day.
Anchor Point, a welcoming rural community famous for being the most westerly point to which you can drive in North America rests between Ninilchik and Homer on the Sterling Highway.
Overlooking Cook Inlet, Anchor Point has an abundance of wildlife and boasts dramatic views of the western Cook Inlet mountain range, volcanos (mountain range), and the world-renowned Anchor River.
