San Juan Islands (Pacific Northwest)


The San Juan archipelago is America’s gateway to the Pacific Northwest, and for many an intrepid kayaker, the start of the famed “inside passage”. At low tide there are said to be over 700 islands and islets, but most visitors go to one or all of the three main islands ­ the Orcas, San Juan and Lopez. On this expedition we’ll leave out of Friday harbor and paddle four fun-filled days through the waters of this far-off wilderness, exploring hidden caves and beaches along the way. We’ll investigate the natural history of this place time forgot and reconnect our spirits to nature. We’ll be accompanied by sea otters, bald eagles, and orca. We’ll dine on gourmet meals prepared by our guides in dutch ovens and over open flame. To enjoy this unique experience we’ll paddle in the comfort of Seaward double kayaks known for their stability and seaworthiness. All equipment is provided for this adventure and all you’ll need is some clothing, personal gear, and a sleeping bag. Our trips are kept small to minimize the impact on the environment. This expedition is ideal for folks interested in multi-day kayak trips or wilderness expeditioning. Our guides are highly skilled and certified, and they share a love of the outdoors that is unparalleled among most outfitters.

Price: $650

I recently finished a trip along the desolate \"Lost Coast\" with my friends from liquid fusion kayak. Our goal was to go slow and pick it apart, learning everything we could about the area in the period of seven days. We hiked, biked, and kayaked, seeing the land and water from multiple vantage points. The trip was in part a diversion from our long busy kayak season but mostly a recon mission to scope the area out for future adventures with you the wilderness loving public. We spent our days cataloging plants and animals, sea life, and weather patterns. We immersed ourselves into the environment became one with it. We paddled many miles and landed through big dumping surf waves. We camped on beachheads, in forest thickets, and next to mountain streams. In reality the area of exploration was only a fraction of the entirety of the Lost coast. With future trips already in the works we\'re on our way to becoming the foremost experts and ambassadors to this amazing stretch of coastline. Read our blogs, look at our pictures and video and contact us if the kayaking the Lost Coast is a dream of yours as well.

Comments: Jeff Laxier, Cate Hawethorn, and Hawk spent a week Hiking and kayaking the remotest sections of California\'s Fabled lost coast this fall. The beauty of this coast is unrivaled anywhere in the lower 48 and provides a sea-kayaker with the ultimate challenge in testing their skills. Look for trips departing in late summer of 2012
