The San Juans are a group of islands located part way between Victoria and Seattle. As part of the American Pacific North-West these islands offer a wonderful mixture of natural beauty and small town hospitality.
People know each other, greet each other and a friendly atmosphere is found everywhere.
No one is in a hurry. The San Juan Islands are made up of many islands including Orcas, Shaw, Lopez and San Juan Island itself. On the island of San Juan there is the town of Friday Harbor, the center of commerce for the island community. In Friday Harbor you can browse the many gift shops, visit a special bookstore, attend a concert or play at the theatre, visit the whale museum, rent a bike or a moped, go on a kayak expedition, have lunch in the garden at one of the many restaurants or stroll down to the marina where you can charter a yacht or just watch the boats and sea-planes arrive. Friday Harbor is the center of activity for all the adventures for your family vacation .
