Bowman Bay is an outstanding place to comfortably kayak or paddle board. It's beautiful and protected from large waves. It was easy to get the kayak into the water. The folks we rented the kayak from - Anacortes Kayak Tours - were helpful but rather disorganized - not clear who was supposed to be working that day.

Thanks for this review. We will talk to the kids who operate the rentals to try and determine why it seemed disorganized that day. Sometimes they do get extremely busy and we appreciate everybody's patience. Come back again sometime!

Nick is an amazing guide. We are so lucky to have such a knowledgeable person. He explained kayaking techniques, and helped us enjoy nature and also learn. We felt safe with a guide than going alone. Highly recommend ! 10/10. Thanks Nick
