San Juan & Whidbey Islands
Explore this gorgeous corner of the Pacific Northwest and get up close and personal with a misty island-dotted landscape—a splash of Alaska mixed with a laid-back island vibe. Hikes on forested isles, strolls to quaint harbors and marine wildlife spotting for days. Glimpse otters and bald eagles from the seat of a bike. Mix in rocky coasts, cozy hotels and the horns of ferry boats, and you have a trip as rich and diverse as the island ecosystem itself.
Highlights
- Admire views of the Olympic range and the Strait of Juan de Fuca from windswept Ebey's Landing National Historic Reserve
- Bike through majestic fir and cedar forests, explore driftwood beaches and visit the only official whale-watching park in the US
- Savor the day’s fresh catch along with island-fresh vegetables and sweet berries right off the vine
- Ferry between islands with locals, taking in the postcard-perfect scenery of the Pacific Northwest as you scan the water for wildlife

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.
