3-Hour Sea Kayak Tour in the San Juan Islands

Overview
We are the only kayak tour company that is currently able to lead trips to Burrows Island. You will be exploring unique shorelines that few visitors to the islands are able to experience.

Save time, and save money!
The experience does not require the hassles of taking a ferry to San Juan Island. Anacortes, located on Fidalgo Island has two bridges connecting us to the mainland.

Because you are able to drive directly to us your time on the water is maximized. Many tour companies on other islands include a lengthy shuttle ride as a part of their trip thereby reducing the actual time spent kayaking and encountering wildlife.

Single kayaks are available for participants for an additional $25pp. Must be 18 years or older. (Must be requested in advance and is subject to availability.)

Professionally trained guides will see to the details and ensure your comfort.

We did the early morning kayak tour and it was wonderful. Our guide Jacob was knowledgeable about the sea life and wildlife we encountered. We were out during low tide so we were able to enjoy searching for starfish and other creatures on the shores of the islands we toured around. Everything from checking in on arrival and getting geared up was easy. I highly recommend this experience.

Our kayaking trip was exquisite even in some rain and drizzle. We saw porpoises, seals, huge bald eagles, oyster-catchers, a jellyfish, and other wildlife. The guide, Shalem, had a delightful attitude and clearly enjoyed not only his work as a guide but the natural beauty around him. Kayaking itself was a new experience for us, but a good one - I loved feeling the kayak gliding through the water as I paddled, & the longer we were out, the more confident I felt handling it. Two in our group sat in a double kayak while I and my niece used singles. All of us enjoyed the experience. I cannot wait to go again. My only advice is to wear gloves! I still have a couple of blisters on my hands. Otherwise I wouldn’t change anything. ATK is an excellent company that showed care and competence in all aspects.
