Description

This is the perfect tour for anyone looking to get out on the water for a few hours on their San Juan Island vacation. With pick-up and drop-off in downtown Friday Harbor, this family and beginner-friendly three hour tour gets you kayaking among pelagic wildlife in the shadow of Mt. Baker. After picking you up at the Friday Harbor waterfront, we'll take a short drive over to Jackson's Beach, coach you through basic paddling and safety techniques and get you out on the serene waters and tidal zone of Griffin Bay as to circumnavigate Dinner Island with views of the Olympic Mountains cresting above Cattle Pass. With morning and afternoon departure times, we think this tour is a great way to dabble in some kayaking, have some laughs, enjoy nature, and make memories with your travel companions.

3-day Kayaking adventure

We are 4 women aged mid50s to early 80s who did a 3-day Stuart Island Kayak and camping trip. The weather was perfect and we were so lucky and excited to see Orcas the first day. Our guide Justin was very knowledgeable, fun, experienced and a great chef. Our meals were delicious and varied with plenty of fresh fruit and veggies, catered to our gluten- and lactose-free needs. We felt very safe with Justin. He gave us very good paddling instructions and prepared us for paddling in changing and strong currents. We loved how he adapted the schedule and changed plans to match our capabilities. We highly recommend Outdoor Odysseys and our excellent guide Justin. Marianne, Polly, Ginna and Kary.

Great 1st kayaking experience!

I went on a 3-hour kayak trip with Maddy. I had not kayaked before, but Maddy helped a lot by giving me instructions and confidence. I ended up having a good time and would do it again.
