San Juan Islands
San Juan Islands Travel Tips
- The larger San Juan Islands—Orcas, San Juan, and Lopez—offer great road-biking routes. Ride to Lime Kiln Point State Park on San Juan Island to watch for whales.
- Sea-kayak along the spectacular west side of San Juan Island for a relaxing outing. The best time to spot orcas, eagles, seals, porpoise, and other wildlife is early in the morning or late afternoon.
- For a more intensive tour, join a guided expedition to view whales, seals, sea lions, river otters, and bald eagles. Outings are offered by dozens of sea-kayaking tour outfitters.
