San Juan Outfitters

Happy Earth Day!

While visiting San Juan Island we went on a kayak trip with San Juan Outfitters. What started out as a beautiful day for a paddle ended in the most memorable kayak trip of our lives. We headed out of Roche Harbor and made our way to Henry Island. A couple hours in we stopped and enjoyed a shoreline brown bag lunch and then continued on. Before long we spotted a small clustering of boats and we knew it must be one thing- whales. For the next half hour we watched in awe as the whales swam a mere hundred yards away from our kayaks. 

There are many things I like about San Juan Outfitters, but the small group size is one of my favorite. When we went kayaking it was just us, our guide and another couple. It was great to have such a small group and to be able to travel from point A to B with ease.

Since my husband is tall he often finds being stuck inside a kayak for several hours on end a miserable experience, but San Juan Outfitters has some of the most comfortable kayaks we have ever been in. 

Even if you don't think you are athletic or like the outdoors much, I promise you as you spend time outdoors doing new things you will discover a side of yourself worth exploring. You will find you can dig deeper, work harder and see things in a new light which can translate to pretty much every other facet of your life.
