San Juan Islands
Nature’s enduring beauty is on display throughout the islands of the San Juan Island Archipelago, a historic Pacific Northwest paradise renowned for its majestic state parks, breathtaking coastal landscapes, and an engaging population of orcas and seals. Our exclusive, six-day, small group journey offers immersive, private boat excursions to some of San Juan’s most remote islands with accommodations at intimate boutique properties. You’ll also indulge in the freshest Pacific Northwest seafood and taste other locally sourced specialties at elaborate, authentic meals prepared by the region’s finest chefs. The archipelago’s past comes to life as you visit the site that launched the famous 1859 “Pig War” and explore the waterfront town of La Conner. In the company of expert guides, you will also watch for whales at Lime Kiln State Park, enjoy panoramic views from Mount Constitution, and admire the cliffs of Deception Pass on this experience to remember, offered at the best time of year.
