Round-trip Scenic Tour of the San Juans from Ruston Point for two! Somewhere Over the San Juans!

You’ll be spellbound in wide-eyed wonder as you take off from Kenmore’s new launch site at Ruston Point and circumnavigate the San Juans in your cozy, but comfy, Kenmore Air seaplane. These emerald gems of our Salish Sea are composed of 172 different named islands and reefs that sit between Anacortes, Washington, and Vancouver Island, Canada. All told, there are 408 miles of shoreline on the islands, the most of any single in the United States! Your Kenmore scenic tour will provide an incredible perspective, allowing you to see exactly why Orcas Island is known for hiking (it’s the hilliest, with Mount Constitution rising nearly a half mile) while Lopez is best for biking (it’s the flattest). You’ll spot four lighthouses located on the San Juan Islands, but not a single stoplight. The islands are also home to three different orca pods living in the Salish Sea region. With water that can be gunmetal gray or clear Caribbean turquoise blue depending on the day, you’ll be amazed at what you’ll see in the sea and on land! You’ll see why they say the best way to see the San Juans is from above!

Thank you to Kenmore Air. Value $500.
