San Juan, Orcas & Whidbey Islands
Welcome to the San Juan Islands, where the summer sun shines, the sea glistens and the pace of life slows. Find your rhythm biking along quiet country roads, spend time kayaking in peaceful inlets and connect to nature hiking amid old-growth forests. A hidden gem of the Pacific Northwest, this natural playground is perfect for an active outdoor adventure.
Highlights
- Bike through majestic fir and cedar forests, explore driftwood beaches and visit the only designated whale-watching park in the United States
- Savor the day’s fresh catch and enjoy island-fresh vegetables and sweet berries right off the vine
- Admire views of emerald islands, Mount Baker and Canada’s coastal peaks from atop Mount Constitution
- Ferry between islands with locals, watching the water for wildlife as you take in the postcard-perfect scenery of the Pacific Northwest

We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
To bring you to our favorite parts of this region, we make liberal use of ferry transfers and shuttles on this trip. You'll be on board a ferry or in a shuttle for many of the days on this trip as we island-hop like the locals do. Consider this an opportunity to view some spectacular marine scenery (and occasional wildlife!) while resting your legs in preparation for your next activity.
Our daily itineraries and activities are based on ferry departures that were accurate at the time of this printing. Unexpected changes to the ferry schedules, however, can result in alterations to the activities as described. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility if we must adjust our activities according to ferry departures, and assure you that any such changes will not affect the quality of your experience.
