We really enjoyed our time with Shearwater Kayak Tours. The owner took us out and he added to the beauty of the islands by giving us lots of information along the way. We saw harbor seals and lots of birds. It was interesting to meet...More

Michelle was a terrific guide and Shearwater was very accommodating. I will be back and kayak with them next year!
Carson was excellent. He explained so much about Orcas while we paddled. A good teacher, reviewed paddle technique. Great personality!
Our group of six go out with Shearwater every summer, and this year was once again wonderful. We always learn something new about sea life!
We are always glad to have your bunch return. Same time next year!
