Jay our guide was wonderful! Both quite professional and patient, with his knowledge and respect of the area was able to share history and beauty! Great experience, will be back with out of town guests! Perhaps even venture into a multi day package for ourselves! Don’t wait for the weather to be perfect!

Beautiful, just be sure to not drink the water while you're here. It's been contaminated by the nearby military base.

Thanks for joining us! We hope to see you again. I'm not certain about which water you are referring to, but the water flowing to the spigots on Fidalgo Island come from a sophisticated water treatment plant which uses water from the Skagit River, far upstream in the mountains. We fortunate to have fantastic drinking water here. I don't think that it would be possible for the naval base on Whidbey Island to contaminate it.

Alex, our kayaking guide, was super kind, knowledgeable, and upbeat. We felt very safe kayaking with her. The group was nice and small with only one other couple. Very fun and unique experience!
