Join us on a half-day guided kayak adventure from 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+ 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!

Schedule: We offer 10am and 2pm half day tours. Custom trips available upon request.

All trips include a guided instruction and are great for beginners and experienced paddlers alike! All guests will be in stable fiberglass northwest made TANDEM sea kayaks. Weight limit is 250lbs per person.

Ask us about our group tours! We provide discounts for parties of 8 or more.
