We made a trip to San Juan Island again this summer and had another excellent trip out with San Juan Safaris! This time they helped us arrange to fly out to Friday Harbor from Lake Union in Seattle on Kenmore Air. That was so easy - and so much fun! We had the first flight out of Lake Union in the morning arriving in time for a late breakfast in Friday Harbor at the cafe in the San Juan Safaris office/store, right on the waterfront.
Our trip out on the water in their boat the Kestrel was great. I was glad to have the all weather suit they provided. Even though it was a warm sunny day on land, it was chilly out on the water. We were very comfortable with the weather suits. We saw so many different animals on this trip! Of course it was most exciting to see orcas, but I loved seeing everything else as well - seals, dolphins, sea lions, birds of all kinds and of course the beautiful scenery!
Again this year I was most impressed with how respectful of the environment the captain and crew were. We had a great view of everything but did not interfere with the animals. Captain Gabe and Naturalist Sarah were professional, helpful, and did everything possible to make sure each passenger had a great experience.
Once again - I enthusiastically recommend San Juan Safaris!!
