I'll trust that Trisha has experienced both. I only saw Seldovia on an overnight excursion and really loved it -- particularly the walk through the "nature" area. We didn't go over to Halibut Cove because we were advised it was much more a " picturesque tourist spot" of recreated stores and shops than a real town.

Oh, I guess I could have added more details. We did the day trip to Halibut Cove from Homer and loved how beautiful it was. There are artist's shops and I thought it was amazing that payment was done through the honor system. In some shops, you leave the amount of the artwork you like in a cup. I still could kick myself in the ...., for not buying this plate I saw over there. My husband talked me out of it because he thought it would break somehow on the way back. I should know better than to listen to him. Also, I had the second best meal I have ever had at the restaurant there. I had barbque smoked salmon with pickled halibut. I think the beauty, shops, and meal made that place. Seldovia I spent the afternoon and liked it okay. I remember taking some nice photos of a church but, nothing special sticks out in my mind. Hope this helps.
