San Juan Outfitters specializes in whale watch, sea kayak, and outdoor adventures for independent travelers as well as large and small groups. Located in the San Juan Islands, considered one the best places in the world to observe Orca (Killer) Whales and other wildlife, San Juan Outfitters has locations in both Roche Harbor and Friday Harbor on San Juan Island. Exclusive facilities at these harbors allow guests safe and easy access to the water for sea kayaking or whale watching. Experienced paddlers, novices, and families alike will enjoy sea kayaking tours, with a wide variety of tours and services available. Whale Watch guests will appreciate the small group feel of vessel, with both captain and naturalist answering questions one-on-one.

Tours depart daily from both Roche Harbor and Friday Harbor from mid April through early October. Guests typically see Orca (Killer) Whales, Porpoise, Harbor Seals, Sea Lions, Bald Eagles, and a wide range of Marine Birds and land mammals. For those primarily interested in seeing Orca (Killer) Whales, whale watch tours by motor vessel are suggested. While our kayak tours do see Killer Whales with some frequency, the best chances are by boat where speed and range are much greater.
