A sea kayaking adventure around the San Juan Islands is truly a trip of a lifetime.
Join Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe next summer and embark on a journey to one of the most
popular kayaking destinations in the world.
Tumalo Creek’s four and seven day San Juan Island Adventures are perfect for those who
have taken our basic skills or intermediate skills kayaking classes and want to take their
paddling to the next level.
The trip includes kayaks, paddles, PFDs and wonderful group meals and deserts.
You will be lead by Tumalo Creek’s expert guides who have been leading trips in the
San Juans for over a decade.
During the trip you will learn sea navigation, ocean specific paddle techniques, efficient
boat packing and wilderness camping skills.
We’ll enjoy great campsites on a number of remote islands.
We might see an array of wildlife including orca whales, porpoise, sea otter, sea lions,
harbor seals and bald eagles.
Multiple days out on the water will give us the chance experience everything from rocky
cliffs, warm sandy beaches, and thick island forests, with the backdrop of Mt.
Baker and the Olympic Mountains in the distance.
The four-day trip is ideal for fit beginners and kayakers will paddle five miles a day
at the most.
The seven-day is an intermediate trip and paddlers will be challenged with some longer
days out on the water as we circumnavigate Orcas Island throughout the course of a week.
They’ll be plenty of opportunities for hiking and tidepooling.
Our days will end around the campfire with excellent, nourishing meals and good company…
Join us next summer in for an incredible few days exploring the dramatic shores of the
San Juan Islands.
This trip is a great way to improve your paddling while experiencing the serenity of
the sea.
