Quick Details
Join Us for a Guided Kayaking Adventure at Wildcat Cove in Larrabee State Park!
Get an excellent introduction to sea kayaking in the San Juans only 20 minutes away from Bellingham, WA. Includes “hands-on” instruction to acquaint new paddlers with safety procedures and equipment. Our three-hour day has 2-3 hours of on-the-water paddling and exploration. If time allows, we stretch our legs on a Nature Conservancy protected island in the bay or a beautiful beach along the way, paddle the cove and explore the intricate geology and wildlife. This is one of our favorite tours to Wildcat Cove that’s good for the whole family!
