San Juan Islands Whale Watching
Local
Charters, Outfitters
List
with Go Northwest!
If you are staying
overnight on the Islands you may want to use the services of one of the
local outfitters or charter companies listed below. If you want to go whale watching as a day trip from
elsewhere in the Puget Sound region, then please go to Mainland Charters and Tours.
Also, some operators have departures from both the islands and the
mainland.
Remember, whale watching is a popular activity and it is a good idea to call
ahead and make reservations in advance of the date you might want to join
a whale watching cruise.
For more on whales and
whale watching, see our related links page.
