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.

The bioluminescence tour was truly magical. I’ve gone twice and had a complete blast. The guides gave insightful lectures on Bowman Bay’s natural habitats and wildlife as well as enriching tales of First Nation folklore to pass the time as the Sun went down. Once the stars came out, the bioluminescent plankton gradually rose to the surface, and once in complete darkness, they completely illuminated the waves in specks of glowing turquoise with each splash of the ore. Words of advice: arrive - if you can - on an evening with no moon and no wind. 1. A moonless night will allow the plankton to appear to shine brighter. 2. When there is high wind, the majority of the plankton dive to deeper waters and don’t return until several days after the winds are gone. Regardless, even on days in which the plankton are mostly hiding out, it is a bucket-list event that is well worth staying up late. At its most luminous, it will be a core memory you’ll try to share with as many loved ones that are willing to participate.

What an incredible afternoon of sea kayaking! Perfect weather, trail and guide! Tim lead us around an island in the Puget Sound, pointed out Harbour seals and kayaked over a bed of bulb sea kelp. It was a perfect way to end our family vacation! And using kayak skirts to prevent water from getting into the kayak was a first for us! What a game changer! Thank you Tim for providing that extra protection!

Our guide, Blake, was expert in kayaking and knowledgeable about the natural world of the Salish Sea and the rocky islands we paddled around. We had a great experience. Even though we live in the region and get to go kayaking every so often, this time was really special. This is a well organized and professional small business.
