I went on a trip with Tim (the owner/guide) a few years back. The area is beautiful and Tim does know the area and ocean currents well. I was enjoying the trip a lot until Tim's own boat capsized while he was using his "sails" At the time this occurred everyone was spread out over about a 1/2 mile because... More

I first tried San Juan Kayak Expeditions about 12 years ago. The trip was amazing. Our guide was very experienced, friendly, and above all - fun! We travelled island to island - seeing the amazing wildlife of the area: eagles, otter, seals, sea lions, deer, porpoise, and orca. On that first trip we kayaked right amongst a pod of Orcas... More

San Juan Kayak doesn’t launch trips. It launches expeditions. And like all good expeditions, any time you spend on land and water with its guides will be full of fun, discovery, laughter, wonder and exploration. That’s probably why kayakers come back year after year. No two expeditions are alike, but they’re all unforgettable. Guides are knowledgeable about the equipment, the... More

Our family has travelled three times with San Juan Kayak, and each time seemed even better than the last. Our two teenagers really loved the adventure and challenge of paddling around the island. On one of our trips we hit it right and sailed the entire length of San Juan channel with Tim's patented kayak sail design. On another trip,... More

My friends and I had such a great time - I've never paddled and laughed so hard. We'd all been kayaking before, but never in water so open and using tandem kayaks. Tim was a great guide with a great sense of humor and food that was perfect for the trip. He and his company have good equipment, knowledgeable guides,... More

I think the San Juan Islands are an awesome place to visit! Kayaking was/is the best way to see it and experience the best it has to offer. Robin and I would definitely go again and we'd go with San Juan Kayak Exp. again. The extremely knowledgeable guides made every turn of the trip interesting and informative. The food was... More

San Juan Kayak Expeditions is a top rate kayak expedition/ rental company. I was hooked after my first expedition. The guides were very professional, helpful and gave me adequate training so I could really enjoy the expedition. All of the equipment from the lightweight and efficient carbon fiber paddles to the two-person fiberglass kayaks to the tents are top of... More

I have been on several SJKE expeditions and have always found the experience to be a great one. It seems that there is a high level of attention to detail paid to every part of the trip - the equipment has always been clean and in good condition, the food is quality, and the routes are well planned and heavy...
