On the east side of San Juan Island, just outside of Friday Harbor, Griffin Bay is the perfect destination for calm water kayaking. Set out for a short paddle to take in the setting sun over San Juan Island. Enjoy the setting as we travel out towards Dinner Island and encounter Harbor Seals and wildlife along the way. As return facing the westward setting sun, we will take our time to enjoy the colors.
Protected from strong currents and prevailing southwesterly winds, Griffin Bay gives paddlers the opportunity for a more mellow kayaking experience. As with all of our tours, we provide quality equipment and professional guides to ensure that you get the most out of your kayaking experience.
Why Choose Discovery Sea Kayaks For Your Kayak Tour
- Quality Guides: All guides complete an in-house kayak skills training, as well as a seasonal training course with top professionals in the field. Guides also participate in naturalist workshops and certification classes at the local Whale Museum which ensures that they know how to operate accordingly around killer whales and other wildlife.
- Our fiberglass tandem kayaks have been selected for stability, performance, and comfort. From calm seas to choppy seas, these kayaks will perform perfectly.
Why We Paddle Griffin Bay
