The evening golden sunlight was wonderful, and the bull kelp was delicious. We spotted seals and eagles, which added to the enjoyment. Our guide was fantastic, making it a memorable family experience.
Our outing was perfect for kids aged 10 and above. My children thoroughly enjoyed tandem kayaking with us, exploring the kelp forests and observing jellyfish. It was a mix of effort for those paddling in the back and a relaxing experience overall. We would absolutely do this again.
Addie served as our guide for a delightful 1.5-hour kayak tour of Bowman Bay and the surrounding area. It was our initial experience in sea kayaks, and we were thrilled to set out. Addie shared a wealth of fascinating and educational information. While we didn’t witness orcas breaching our kayaks as we had hoped, we did observe a variety of marine life, including plant life, fish, crabs, seals resting on rocks, and even "Ellie Mae," the female elephant seal on the shore. The 1.5-hour duration was just right for our outing. We also had the chance to sample bull kelp leaves, which were surprisingly flavorful, though quite salty. Thank you for a wonderful tour, Addie.
This trip was an ideal way for my daughters to experience kayaking for the first time. Our guide was attentive and well-informed, the water was serene, and we spotted numerous sea birds, seals, a kelp crab, and many egg yolk jellies. My daughters can't wait to do it again. It was truly a memorable adventure.
The evening kayak tour from Bowman Bay was nothing short of spectacular. It was an exquisite experience that ranks among the most stunning moments of my travels. The water was incredibly calm, with a vivid orange sunset, and we spotted dolphins and eagles. Following the sunset, we paddled back while enjoying the bioluminescence in the dark, with plenty of stars overhead. The guides ensured we were properly equipped, and the kayaks and gear were in great condition. They shared valuable information about the area and its biology, allowing us to fully savor every moment without feeling rushed.
We have taken two trips with Anacortes kayak tours and enjoyed both immensely. The guides prioritize safety and enjoyment while being knowledgeable and helpful. The views are stunning, and experiencing everything from the water adds to the adventure. Highly recommend.
Scheduling was simple, and the equipment provided for kayaking was comprehensive. The guide was both friendly and professional, making the experience enjoyable and informative.
I had an excellent time on the tour with Derek as our guide. He was very supportive for us, being novice kayakers, and his insight into the area added to the experience. The gear was in great condition, and the instructions on its use were very helpful. This service is ideal for anyone looking to explore the local waters without needing their own equipment.
I took the 1.5-hour trip starting from Bowman Bay at Deception Pass. Our guide, Jeff, was fantastic. With beautiful weather and excellent guiding, it really was a wonderful experience.
We had a fantastic morning paddle in a tranquil location. Jeff was an excellent guide, and the equipment provided was top-notch. We truly enjoyed ourselves and encountered a wonderful variety of interesting sights. I highly recommend this experience.
