About The San Juan Island Commuter

The San Juan Islands Experience
 
An area world-famous for it's pristine beauty, abundant wildlife and ample recreational opportunities is just minutes away from the ferry terminal in Bellingham, Washington. Enjoy an adventure amongst the unspoiled islands of the San Juan Archipelago. Perhaps now is the time to explore the glistening blue waters and experience the majestic beauty of the islands that make Washington State so unique.
 
Imagine yourself cruising along the route of the mail-boats of the past, when an islander's only connection to the outside world was their community gathering to meet the mail-boat. As you enjoy the sights and sounds of our fully narrated sightseeing cruise you're often joined by residents of some of the smaller islands getting on or off as we make "flag stops" along the way.
 
While visiting Friday Harbor, the largest town in the San Juans, you're offered a variety of unique shops, excellent eateries, the educational Whale Museum, brewpubs and numerious outdoor activities such as kayaking and bicycling. Spend your day on San Juan Island, or jump back aboard after an hour in Friday Harbor for our 3 1/2 hour whale watching tour. Either way, you're sure to enjoy your afternoon. 
 
2008 Season: May 17th - September 1st

San Juan Island Commuter offers daily service during the summer months between Bellingham, WA, Orcas Island, and Friday Harbor (San Juan Island). We can also make "flag stops" at Eliza, Sinclair, Blakely and Lopez Islands. Optional whale watching trips can be included with your Friday Harbor getaway.

Our 50-foot vessel comfortably accommodates up to 42 passengers with lots of room for kayaks, bicycles, luggage and camping equipment. It has a snack bar (including coffee, beer, juice and soda), a restroom, and plenty of indoor table seating. This Coast Guard certified vessel is piloted by licensed skippers and crew.
