On this rewarding 4-Day Kayak Expedition we will take you right into the heart of the San Juan Islands. By the end of it you’ll get the San Juan Islands so far under your skin that you may not want to go home. Gliding silently through the scenery, your kayak can get up close and personal with everything that makes the San Juans so special.
For four days we will set about to see all that we can see as we make our way off of the beaten path. Our exact itinerary is never set in stone because we like to see what each day brings so that we can maximize our fun. It also eliminates the feeling that you are on some sort of cookie-cutter sea kayak tour. This is truly an expedition and our guests help us create unique adventures on every outing.
Most trips paddle out toward the central cluster of small islands known as the Wasp Islands. Located between San Juan Island, Orcas Island, and Shaw Island, the Wasps provide a peaceful setting for sea kayaking. Bald eagles, pods of porpoise, and of course the ubiquitous Harbor seals are just a few of the critters who will grace us with their presence while we explore the area. Many trips stop at the beautiful, Nature Conservancy owned, Yellow Island to photograph the stunning displays of spring wildflowers, or just to chat with longtime caretakers Phil and Kathy Green. The only human residents of this magical place.
This trip gives you the chance to paddle through the best of the San Juan Islands. You will get the opportunity to see more than many local residents ever experience.
What you need to know to get ready for your multi-day kayak trip!
We specialize in small group, all inclusive, multi-day sea kayak trips in the San Juans.
- On these multi-day sea kayaking expeditions we strictly adhere to a 6 guest per guide ratio, with a maximum of 10 guests. All trips larger than 6 people will have two guides.
- Groups of 5 or more guests can choose to have a private kayaking experience!
- A small sea kayaking group can move much more efficiently. We need less time attending to logistical issues like setting up or breaking camp and have more time for exploring and having fun in the San Juan Islands.
- All camping and kayaking equipment is provided, as are all meals, including lunches.
The longer multi-day sea kayaking expeditions are best suited for folks in reasonably good shape. Occasionally there is a need to make a long push to get to the next campsite and we would not want to wear anyone out on a long crossing. We actually design these trips to be a little more physically involved. 5 day trips might average 8-10 miles per day paddling.
Anacortes Kayak Tours reserves the right to change or cancel available departure dates and prices. Once you book a kayak tour with us we will run it, as long as weather conditions permit us to conduct a safe sea kayaking excursion.
On multiday kayaking trips we do have a minimum of two people to run the trip, this is a matter of safety, not economics.
Don’t hesitate to call us if you have questions or would like additional details on any of our trips.
