"It takes years to thoroughly know these islands and their waters. Simply stated, I have been studying for thirty years to give my clients the safest, most educational and personalized guided sea kayaking adventure possible. I am the most experienced sea kayak guide in the San Juan Islands! My knowledge of the tides and currents, coastlines, local lore, and natural history of the islands is simply a reflection of that experience!"
"My sea kayak trips offer wholesome, delicious meals and the industry's newest, state-of-the-art equipment! You will experience ever-changing coastlines, campgrounds and wildlife(from otters to eagles to orcas), enjoy the excitement of sailing a kayak with the wind and spend a few days with a kayak guide who has traveled more miles in the San Juans by sea kayak than anyone on the planet!"
"Seems sensible that a small, local, sea kayaking outfitter that has been doing this for a while would be a good bet. You can rest assured that everything I have learned as a thirty year resident and avid paddler in the San Juan Islands goes into every trip! A company like mine, that has offered owner-guided trips since 1980, must be doing something right!! Come along for a fun-filled,unforgettable ride!"

"I just wanted to say thanks again for a great trip. Learning to kayak, experiencing the moodiness and beauty of the islands from the best place imaginable (the kayak), seeing the sights/wildlife, all the laughs, the great camping food, the beautiful wake-up calls...all made for a fantastic, memorable time.
You rock. Thanks!"

We really enjoyed our expedition with you. Especially your old-school style. Your experience and knowledge of the islands, wildlife, the water and tides--it made for an excellent trip. That kind of knowledge and experience is priceless! We appreciated your approach where kayakers and guide all pitch in with chores. Kayaking is all about doing. People wanting pampered luxury should check into a hotel. We've been telling everyone about San Juan Kayak.com. Thanks!
