These kayaking trips are our most popular tours for a variety of reasons. The convenient location, perfect length, affordable prices, and diverse departure times all add up to a great day of sea kayaking in the San Juan Islands.

For your comfort and security we custom designed easy to use sea kayak docks which makes entering and exiting our kayaks almost effortless.

The first few minutes of this kayak tour are in the bathtub-like conditions of the marina. This allows folks who have never been sea kayaking before to settle in and get comfortable in the kayak.

Deception Pass is the most visited state park in Washington for good reason. Miles of scenic shoreline, quiet trails through groves of ancient trees, and abundant wildlife makes Deception Pass State Park a rewarding destination for people of all ages and interests.

Anacortes Kayak Tours is excited to be working in partnership with Deception Pass State Park, creating memories for hundreds of families every summer.

On the Fidalgo Island side of Deception Pass, 0.5 miles north of the bridge, is a quiet and protected area known as Bowman Bay.Your kayak tours depart from the lovely beach here, gliding out under the silent majesty of old growth Fir, Cedar, and Hemlock trees.

Although the waters underneath the Deception Pass Bridge draw millions of visitors who come to watch the turbulent currents, it is the much calmer water just outside of the Deception Pass narrows that attracts sea kayakers and wildlife viewing enthusiasts from around the world.

Sea kayaking the Outer San Juan Islands allows visitors to Washington State the ability to get a San Juan Islands experience that is unattainable for those who follow the beaten path. We are fortunate to have an incredible vessel that was created specifically for this sort of job. Your sea kayaking tour starts in Anacortes aboard our USCG Certified high-speed aluminum catamaran. This boat was designed for beach landings in the San Juan Islands. This allows us to quickly access remote locations in the San Juan Islands that most visitors will never get a chance to experience.

No other sea kayaking outfitter in the San Juan Islands can do what we do.

The ability to land directly on the beach makes exclusive kayaking hotspots available to us. We are free to find you the best paddling locations in the San Juan Islands. When paddling with Anacortes Kayak Tours you will be delivered directly to wild and scenic areas in the San Juan Islands where wildlife is abundant and the views of the surrounding terrain is unsurpassed.
