Who we are

Moondance Kayak Adventures is the longest running kayaking company in Bellingham, Washington. Since 1992, we’ve welcomed beginners as well as more skilled paddlers on our adventures and we are PROUD to continue to share our knowledge and expertise with you today!

Our mission has always been to share and experience the Salish Sea through the median of sea kayaking to people of all ages, communities and backgrounds while promoting low impact interaction with the natural surroundings we engage with.

All of our guides are not only expert kayak instructors but also passionate naturalists, bringing a wealth of knowledge about the diverse flora and fauna of the Salish Sea. All of our trips focus on connecting people to place by engaging with the abundant marine life that inhabits our waters.

“Snug in our kayaks, we will glide through kelp beds along shoreline galleries of fantastically sculpted sandstone and cross between islands in a dance with the moon and the tides…” – Sharmon Hill (Founder). 

We take pride in being a woman-owned company
