Book your 2010 flotilla now (in 2009) and we’ll lock you in at these 2009 rates!
Join fellow sailors in cruising the beautiful San Juan Island Archipelago. Possible destinations to discover include the idyllic anchorages of Sucia Island, the quaint towns and resorts of San Juan Island, the stunning hiking trails and vistas of Stuart Island, the sandy beaches and fantastic bird watching of Spencer Spit (Lopez Island) and the quiet beauty of Lummi Island.
For centuries the call of the San Juan Islands of northwest Washington State has lured adventurous mariners seeking a special place. Long before Spanish and English sailors explored this vast myriad of islands, Native Americans plied the straits in their canoes as they traded, raided and gathered seafood.
The hundreds of San Juan Islands range from small rocky outcrops to large forest-clad mountainous masses. Wildlife abounds on the land and in the sea. You're just as likely to encounter tiny squirrels, deer and bald eagles as you are to see seals, sea lions and orca whales.
