Tours de avistamiento de ballenas

The Salish Sea is the best place on earth for whale watching to see wild Orca Whales. We have two whale tours: our specialty orca watching tour, the Orca Only Tour, and our classic whale watch, the Orca & Whale Tour.

On both of these wildlife tours we can also see Bald Eagles, Harbor Seals, Steller's Sea Lions, a wide variety of sea birds, and much more.

Our Orca & Whale tour with guaranteed sightings ensures you will see a whale or an orca, or you can come again free!

 

If you are especially passionate for orcas and specifically want to see killer whales, our Orca Only Tour with guaranteed orcas, see an orca or come again free!

Chances of Seeing
Each Kind of Whale

Orcas can be seen in the San Juan's all year, and are the most frequently seen whales on all of our tours.

 

Humpback Whales and Gray Whales migrate through the Salish Sea on their journey between colder feeding areas in the north in summer and warmer breeding areas in the south in winter.

Minke Whales can be seen here year round.

TOUR EN KAYAK POINT DOUGHTY

Outer Island Excursions ofrece recorridos en kayak de 3 horas desde Smuggler's Villa Resort en la isla Orcas. Remamos por la costa norte de la isla Orcas hasta el parque estatal Point Doughty. Rodeado de propiedad privada en tierra, solo se puede acceder al parque en kayak, canoa o bote de remos. Una vez en el parque, tomamos un breve descanso en la playa para disfrutar de un paseo por la naturaleza y hermosas vistas del monte Baker y las islas circundantes antes de regresar a Smugglers.

Estos recorridos en kayak exploran la mejor área de vida silvestre que la isla Orcas tiene para ofrecer. Es el hogar de muchas focas, águilas y aves costeras. A menudo vemos marsopas comunes alimentándose en las corrientes alrededor del punto, ¡e incluso ocasionalmente orcas!

Parking is marked in yellow, check in location is marked in blue at our office. Parking passes for our Anacortes location are available to purchase at the time of your reservation or at check in.

No trip to Washington is complete without a whale watch and Outer Islands Excursions is a great choice. Capt Jim, and naturalists Delaney and Sophia were friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable hosts. We saw Orcas, a humpback, seals, sea lions, porpoises and eagles. The boat was a perfect size with both inside and outside viewing opportunities. Such a perfect way to experience the natural beauty of the San Juans.
