Once on San Juan Island the van shuttle will be waiting directly across the street from the ferry landing, or to your right (north) in the traffic circle located just past the ice cream shop.

If you are driving on to the ferry then you will need to park in town. There is no parking available in San Juan County Park for guests on kayak tours.

On Second Street (to the right off of Spring St), up past the Courthouse, and next to the Community Theater, is a long-term parking lot (free). Also there is street parking on First Street, and on Spring Street past Argyle Avenue. Be sure to note whether it is short-term parking only so that you do not get ticketed.

Thank you for everything. Our meeting went like Swiss clockwork from start to finish thanks to you and your amazing guides. I simply can’t say enough good things about those four to do justice to the subtle but stout job they did on our trip. We felt completely safe, the food was nothing short of spectacular (and always right on time!), and they were simultaneously in complete control and entirely respectful of our group. Ours is a company based upon outstanding customer service and it’s perhaps an understatement to say that we demand the same from the agencies and individuals we choose to work with. Anacortes Kayak Tours has certainly lived up to our vision of what customer service can and should be — Bravo!
