Kayaking in Deception Pass State Park

Overview
No experience is necessary to join this professionally guided kayak trip. Bowman Bay is the perfect place for beginners to feel comfortable paddling on the sea. It offers beautiful scenery and lots of wildlife to seek out. Although this trip is conducted in Deception Pass State Park we avoid the turbulent water near the bridge which is more suitable for expert kayakers. If you plan to visit Deception Pass State Park then don't miss this wonderful opportunity to see it from the unique perspective of a sea kayak!

Lisa is a great guide who told us all about the wildlife, rock formations, tides, etc. She was patient with our group which had a small kiddo. Highly recommend.

We had 3 adults and a toddler on the tour and it was a great way to see Deception Pass! Lisa was our guide and did a great job; as she was very informative and even helped me out when my son got a bit restless! It’s great with the family or even going solo!

The experience was great from start to finish. This was our first time in sea kayaks, and it makes sense if one is new to this part of Puget Sound to go out the first time with an excellent guide and guide company. The kayaks were easy to paddle and surprisingly stable. Blake was our guide. His knowledge and enthusiasm and his ability to explain, demonstrate, and guide clearly and on point were top notch. The process of checking us in and orienting us was clear and good. We will be back for other trips with Anacortes Kayak Tours.
