San Juan Islands Flotilla
Join Our 2018 SAN JUAN ISLANDS FLOTILLA Ranked as one of the top 10 island groups in the U.S., people flock from all over the globe to experience the San Juan Island’s natural beauty, historic intrigue, and wildlife. Our exclusive guided flotilla takes you around the San Juan Islands’ 172 islands—many of which are completely secluded and only accessible by private boat. Lounge on your yacht’s open-air deck with an evening cocktail, make a stop at Sucia Island for an exhilarating hike, eat fresh crab at Roche Harbor, and spot Orcas, bald eagles, and more off the shores of Orcas Island. There’s no better way to experience the San Juan Islands than our flotilla—reserve your spot today. Of all the charter companies we have dealt with, these guys were head and shoulder above anyone we have ever dealt with. I highly recommend them if you ever consider a bareboat in the Pacific Northwest. —Mark, 2016 San Juan Islands Flotilla Passenger Reserve your spot today: contact [email protected] or (360) 676-1248. Your Itinerary: JOIN US FROM JUNE 22-29, 2018 Day 1: Pre-board, reception, and orientation. Get to know your fellow flotilla mates. Day 2 Stuart Island, WA: The remote Stuart Island is a favorite among local boaters for its seclusion (the island doesn’t even have public electricity!). Hike to Turn Point Lighthouse and check out the Stuart Island school—a historic, one-room schoolhouse, reopened in 2008. Day 2 & 3 Victoria, BC: Enjoy high tea at the majestic Empress Hotel, see the classic architecture of the Parliament buildings, and take in Victoria’s many sights, including Butchart Gardens, the British Columbia Museum, art galleries, seafood restaurants, and more. -
