The Roche Harbor Resort remains a historical fixture on San Juan Island. San Juan Island boasts the largest population in the San Juans, although there still are many secluded, quiet spots here. There's a great choice of accommodations, many good places to eat and so many activities to choose from, you'll probably run out of time before you run out of things to do.
Camping also is available.
At the residential edge of Friday Harbor, a bed and breakfast full of great furnishings and antiques. Fresh, original dishes come out of this tiny operation. Mostly takeout, but there are a few tables as well. Lime Kiln State Park, on the west side of the island, is the nation's first whale-watching park. Or take a sea kayak.
