O Island BEACHES

NE OF THE MOST POPULAR BEACHES on San Juan Island is South Beach, which offers stunning views of the Olympic Mountains and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. South Beach is also known for its beautiful, mile-long stretch of shoreline. In addition to its natural beauty, South Beach is home to the American Camp National Park, which preserves the site of a military camp established during the Pig War between the United States and Great Britain in the mid-19th century.

Just before American Camp is Eagle Cove, another popular beach on San Juan Island. This unique, south-facing, gently sloping beach seems to be protected from the big waves of the strait. The sandy cove is great for sunbathing, skimboarding, and paddle boarding. This hidden gem is frequented by the San Juan Island locals year-round. San Juan County Park, located on the coast of Haro Strait, exhibits great views of the Olympic Peninsula and Vancouver Island. This small park, featuring rocky bluffs and gravel beaches, can be found on the west side of San Juan Island. The park is open for day use and overnight camping. In the summer months, whales are frequently seen from the shores of the park.

On the northernmost point of Orcas Island is North Beach. This rocky beach offers panoramic views of Mount Baker and is the best launching point for adventuring out to the nearby Islands, such as Sucia Island, Patos Island, or Matia Island. Since the border is so close, you can also see Canadian Islands, such as Saturna Island, on the horizon.

Oldin County Park, on Lopez Island, features 80 acres of waterfront with 30 campsites, a lovely sandy beach, a boat launch, hiking trails, and several picnic areas. Enjoy the sunset as you are surrounded by great blue herons, seagulls, and sea otters.

Another notable beach is Spencer Spit State Park on Lopez Island, which offers calm waters for kayaking and beachcombing. Lime Kiln State Park, on San Juan Island, is a popular spot for whale watching and wildlife viewing. Fourth of July Beach, across from South Beach on San Juan Island, is a lovely stretch of pebbly sand facing Griffin Bay. Whether you are looking for a quiet spot to relax and soak up the sun or an adventurous spot to explore the natural beauty of the islands, there is an abundance of beaches to discover and enjoy in the San Juan Islands.

If you are looking for recreation programs for you and your family, fun community events, or classes for learning a new skill, look no further than your local park and rec district! San Juan Island Park & Recreation District – known locally as “Island Rec,” has been serving San Juan Island residents since 1984. Island Rec provides robust recreation programming and maintains several parks, including the community athletic fields and walking trail at John O. Linde Community Park. Approximately 80% of funding for Island Rec comes from a voter-supported property tax levy, with the remainder of costs covered by participant fees, grants, and donations. In a unique and necessary partnership, Island Rec also covers costs for the high school athletics program to ensure local youth have the opportunity to participate in sports.

In addition to year-round recreation programming for all ages, Island Rec offers a daily after-school program for K-5th grade, the free Music on the Lawn summer concert series, and a myriad of events that have become woven into the fabric of the San Juan Island community. In the summer you will find Island Rec staff running programs all over the island, from sailing lessons to youth day camps. The summer adult soccer league and the Friday Harbor 8.8k Run are also local favorites. In June, Island Rec hosts the Hill of Thrills Soap Box Race, where competitors build their own non-motorized gravity propelled car and compete in head to head heats down Grover Street. During the colder months, residents enjoy nightly indoor pickleball, basketball, roller hockey, and more leagues for children and adults. Island Rec offers financial assistance to San Juan Island Residents to participate in Island Rec programs.

Island Rec's dedicated parks team operates and maintains several parks on San Juan Island that are free and open to the public daily. Keep reading to learn about local parks on San Juan Island. Visit www.islandrec.org to view and sign up for programs and for detailed information on all parks.

L AND B ANK

Conserving the Rural Character of the San Juans

SAN JUAN COUNTY, 1990: Land development and tourism were on the rise, and the County’s population was rapidly growing. Facing the loss of places they loved, a diverse group of locals, (including Sam R Buck Sr., who along with his wife Barbara, started our company in 1960, then known as San Juan Properties, Inc. and now known as Coldwell Banker San Juan Islands, Inc.), sought for a way to save their treasured open spaces and maintain their quality of life. Their collective vision led to the creation of the San Juan County Citizens Conservation Land Bank.

The Conservation Land Bank is charged with preserving exceptional places in the islands, guided by local input. A onetime 1% real estate excise tax, paid by purchasers of property at closing, funds the program. In this way the community, through the Conservation Land Bank, has the ability to purchase and thereby protect the places that make the islands such a special place to visit, raise a family, and retire.

This investment in community space has paid off in spades. Since its inception over thirty years ago, the Conservation Land Bank has protected close to 7,500 acres. The portfolio includes some of the archipelago’s most celebrated places: Westside Preserve on San Juan, Turtleback Mountain Preserve on Orcas, and the Fisherman Bay Preserves on Lopez.

When possible, areas with significant wildlife habitat and community value are purchased and turned into preserves. The Land Bank stewards forests and grasslands, tidelands, 13 different beaches and have designated 50 miles of trails. The Land Bank also manages over 60 conservation easements on private lands. These easements safeguard sweeping views of the sea, family farmlands and waterfowl-rich wetlands.

This is a community that prioritizes open space and strives to provide and protect farms, forests, shores, and scenic vistas now and for the generations to come.

Preserves and Conservation Easements

the SAN JUAN PRESERVATION TRUST

The San Juan Preservation Trust is a private, nonprofit, nationally accredited land trust devoted to helping individuals and communities conserve land in the San Juan Islands of Washington State. It was established in 1979 by a group of island citizens. The Preservation Trust is governed by a 15to 21-member Board of Trustees, who are legally obligated to administer the land for the purpose of preservation. Board members represent each of the four major San Juan Islands (San Juan Island, Orcas Island, Lopez Island, and Shaw Island), as well as other outer islands in the archipelago.

The organization’s staff members are united by a passion and desire to protect the natural legacy of the San Juan Islands for future generations to come. The Preservation Trust offers a volunteer program that encourages active participation in efforts to conserve treasured island sites and landscapes. The organization aims to provide volunteers with an experience that is enjoyable, educational, and worthwhile.

The Preservation Trust collectively works with landowner partners and member/supporters to forever protect and care for more than 300 properties, which include 50 miles of shoreline, 25 miles of trails and 19,000 acres on 21 islands. Most of this land belongs to private landowners and is not open to the public. The map highlights nature preserves that are open for public visitation, with some limitations.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the San Juan Preservation Trust receives no tax revenue and depends

exclusively on charitable donations to preserve the San Juan Islands. As an accredited land trust, the organization is committed to financial transparency and the highest standards of ethical governance. The San Juan Preservation Trust tax ID/ EIN is 91-1078355.

The mission of this Preservation Trust is to conserve, care for, and connect people with the land of the San Juan Islands. To conserve the natural beauty, essential ecosystems, and unique character of the San Juan Islands for future generations, the Trust creates legal agreements, called conservation easements, that permanently limit uses of the land in order to protect its conservation values.

To care for the lands and waters under its protection and with its partners (which include the San Juan County Land Bank), the Preservation Trust’s stewardship staff manage the retained nature preserves, monitor the conservation easements held, and renovate damaged or neglected lands that are protected by the trust. To connect people to nature, to each other, and to the Preservation Trust, they encourage collaboration, education, and outreach to further their core values. Preservation Trust Executive Director Angela Anderson says, “Successful conservation depends on active engagement with people whose lives and livelihoods interconnect with the natural areas that SJPT preserves and protects, for today and for future generations.”

American Camp

American Camp is located on the southern tip of San Juan Island. In the summer of 1859, the “Pig War” was initiated after an American Settler shot a British pig on the Island that both nations claimed. The “Pig War” is referring to the 12 year long peaceful standoff between American and British soldiers and settlers. The American Army and the British Royal Navy jointly lived on San Juan Island in the mid-1800s. American soldiers lived at Camp San Juan Island, today known as American Camp, from July 1859 through November 1874.

A new facility is now complete to greet visitors with state of the art exhibits, books, and guides to island history and wildlife. At American Camp, you will find some historical points of interest, including a fortress and lookout called the Redoubt, a small artifact museum, and historic buildings.

Continue through American Camp and you will notice several miles of trails that will take you through grassy prairies scattered with rocky outcrops. Walk down to South Beach, the longest public beach in the San Juan Islands. Enjoy the fantastic views from South Beach over the Strait of Juan de Fuca to the Olympic Mountains. Find other trails that will lead you up the 285-foot Mount Finlayson with views of Cattle Point Lighthouse. From Mount Finlayson follow the trail down to Jakle’s Lagoon and Fourth of July Beach. American Camp holds residence of more than 200 species of migratory birds, and is home to a nesting pair of bald eagles, an abundance of red foxes, orcas, and other marine mammals that are frequent visitors to the waters off South Beach.

English Camp

English Camp is a National Park with remains of a mid19th-century settlement with historic outbuildings and exhibitions, plus a boat dock. No permits are required to park here when visiting. There is a bike rack, bathrooms, and parking for approximately 25 cars. Dogs are allowed to join you if kept on a leash.

On June 15, 1859, the “Pig War” was initiated, which led to a peaceful 12-year joint British and United States occupation of San Juan Island while the two nations argued over who owned the San Juans. At the north end of the Island, the Royal Marines lived at the English Camp. Today, a few buildings, a formal garden, and a cemetery remain at the English Camp grounds.

This beautiful day-use park on the shores of Garrison Bay includes a small, seasonal visitors’ center, providing information on the history and wildlife of English Camp. Explore the trails that range from a fairly strenuous hike up Young Hill to the cemetery and beyond to an easy 45-minute loop through woodland and along the bay. On Saturdays from June through August, park rangers and volunteers recreate some of the skills of military and civilian life during the island’s early pioneer period. For an entire weekend in July, the park hosts a reenactment of life in the mid-19th-century camp.

Island History

The history of San Juan Island is a long one, despite what may be described in introductory descriptions of this unique island community. For thousands of years, Native people from Coast Salish communities have lived in the San Juan Islands. Then during the mid-19th century, Great Britain and the United States, both challenged by a limited understanding of this area’s geography, each claimed all the San Juan Islands but did agree upon a compromise international boundary in “the strait.” But there are two straits. This dispute led to what is called the Pig War crisis when each nation sent troops to the island to defend its territory. An impartial tribunal decided in favor of the United States in 1872, which is why San Juan Island is now an American island. This era is interpreted and commemorated by today’s San Juan Island National Historical Park.

Island farms, fishing operations, and retail commerce developed at a faster pace once San Juan County was established in 1873. Families were often cross-cultural, established by the marriages of Coast Salish women to European-American descent men.

In the 1890s, leisure boat excursions to bucolic, fresh-air places became popular and Friday Harbor experienced a flourishing era of town development with new hotels, shops, and restaurants. Fishing and logging were becoming thriving industries, so commercial exports out of Friday Harbor made for an active seaport.

In the early 1950s, with soldiers home from World War II and families reunited, national advertising campaigns promoted “See America,” and encouraged domestic leisure travel, including the San Juans as a family vacation destination. The popularity of recreational boating and the building of summer vacation cabins followed in the 1960s.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation has named Friday Harbor to its list of “Dozen Distinctive Destinations,” while noting it is the only historic seaport town on the West Coast that has never been destroyed by fire.

Today, the San Juan Historical Museum is located on the momentous landmark of James F. King Farmstead, only a few blocks from the Friday Harbor Ferry Landing. Friday Harbor's last remaining homestead farm was originally built in 1894 by James F. King. In 1966, the farmhouse was donated by the new owner and local resident George Peacock to the Historical Society to use as a museum. The Museum represents a distinct island culture of resilience and independence, sharing stories from the island’s four major historical industries farming, fishing, logging, and lime quarrying and processing. In addition, the Museum collection contains nine heritage structures, thousands of photographs, and artifacts that represent our collective heritage.

Independence Day

Independence Day on San Juan Island is a festive and community-oriented event that celebrates America's birthday in style. The Town of Friday Harbor will be decked out in an abundance of Fourth of July decorations, such as red, white, and blue buntings and flags. The island is known for its closeknit community and this is reflected in the events of the day, which typically begin with a pancake breakfast hosted by the local fire department at Brickworks.

The renowned town parade is the next event that visitors and residents alike assemble to watch, starting at around 10:30am. The parade winds through the streets of Friday Harbor, featuring floats, classic cars, and marchers dressed in patriotic attire. Grab a front row seat on the sidewalk along the parade route so you can have a great view of this event.

Following the parade, there is a 'Pig-War Picnic,' featuring live music, dancing, a pie-eating contest, a cakewalk, kid's games, and a delicious barbeque for you to enjoy with friends and family. The new location, just down from the San Juan Island Historical Museum, provides plenty of room for the crowds who walk up Spring Street after the parade.

On the North Side of San Juan Island, Roche Harbor has its own activities planned for an exhilarating Fourth of July. Roche Harbor Resort hosts a Family 3.3K Fun Run, logrolling contest, egg toss, doughnut eating contest, children's games, live music, and a special colors ceremony near the end of the event. All of these fun activities typically start around 12:30pm, but are also subject to change. Make a quick trip from the Town of Friday Harbor to the North Side of the San Juan Island to participate in these events.

As the sun sets over the island, the night sky is illuminated with a spectacular fireworks display, which can be viewed from numerous vantage points throughout the island. Celebrate the birth of American Independence by honoring the important message of self-goverance, equality, the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The entire day is characterized by a strong sense of community and camaraderie, with everyone coming together to celebrate the values and freedoms that make America great. Overall, Independence Day on San Juan Island is a festive and memorable celebration of all that makes this country special.

Alexa + James

September 2023 Wedding on San Juan Island

Alexa and James Guard had their island wedding on a sunny September day. Thanks to Kestrel Bailey Photography and her assistants Bethany Ness and Aiden Haines, we have the special honor of sharing their picture-perfect day with you.

Their love story began in high school when James asked Alexa on a first date on Valentine's Day. Exactly seven years later, James proposed to Alexa at South Beach on San Juan Island, recreating the magic of their first romantic encounter. Both growing up in the town of Friday Harbor, they were woven into each other's lives since childhood. Seven months after their engagement, Alexa and James were married at the Guard family's island home. In just a few months, they managed to create the most beautiful and heartfelt celebration of love and union.

As they exchanged vows beneath the same apple tree where James' two older sisters had been married, it was evident that they were not just embarking on a new chapter but continuing a cherished tradition in the backyard of his parent's home. In the summer of 2024, James' third sister will also exchange vows beneath the timeless embrace of this significant location.

The outdoor reception was set amidst the vast blue sky and towering trees of the scenic valley. As guests found their seats,

the newlywed couple and their wedding party made a special entrance from the ceremony site to the dance floor. Tables adorned with delicate centerpieces reflected the love and care that Alexa and James had poured into every detail of their day. Speeches given by family members and friends highlighted the exceptional character of the lovely couple. Dinner and dessert were carefully curated and authentic to represent the favorite dishes amongst the Mora family, who are not only Alexa's parents but also the proud owners of Bakery San Juan. As Alexa and James shared their first dance, it was clear that their love would continue to grow and flourish in the years to come.

The beauty and warmth of Alexa and James' island wedding highlights the collaborative efforts of several local vendors who brought their dream day to life. The San Juan Islands are filled with experienced professionals who will ensure any island event is truly unforgettable. Check out Alexa and James Guard's dream team of vendors below!
