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.

My husband and I rented a double kayak. We try to do this paddle every summer. The paddle is gorgeous and as a bonus we saw quite a few seals and a few bay porpoises. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable kayaking and about the area. I would highly recommend this tour. Never disappoints!

My friend and I went on the early 3 hour tour. The trip far exceeded expectations. Our trip was at high tide, and we still saw multiple groups of harbor seals in the water or sun bathing, porpoises, and here's the 5 star sighting - A Stellar Sea Lion in front of us and behind our boat, with its big huge head, and hiss like exhalation! Leo, our wonderful guide, made sure we safely travelled around Burrows Island as we ventured on the Rosario Straits side, and he was an excellent navigator, and he knows a lot about sea life and geology as well. The other participant actually ended up buying her kayak! That's how good the tour was... We have kayaked many times before, and this trip rocked!

Those Stellar sea lions can sure add some excitement to the trip! I'm happy to hear that you had a fun time with Leo and that we exceeded your expectations. Come back again someday!
