Ferry Information and Scheduled Sailings to the San Juan Islands
View Site
Ferries run from Anacortes to Lopez Island, Orcas Island, and Friday Harbor on San Juan Island as well as Shaw Island. Interisland ferries are also available for travel between each island. These ferries carry passengers and vehicles. Loading is on a first come/first served basis-so early arrival at the dock is advised especially during peak travel times in July and August. International sailing to and from Sidney, British Columbia on Vancouver Island begins on Sunday, April 2, 2006. The ferry schedule changes seasonally-check for current sailing times by viewing the Washington Ferry site via the link above.
Whale Watching, available from Deer Harbor Charters, a 35-passenger whale watching vessel going out daily from Rosario Marina offers four hour excursions. They provide an on-board naturalist for outstanding commentary on Puget Sound ecosystem and the marine mammal behavior. Private charters are available.

Moran State Park is a 5,252 acre Washington State Park with five freshwater lakes and over 30 miles of hiking trails. Atop the 2,409 foot high Mt. Constitution (found within the park at what is the highest point in the San Juan Islands) visitors will find an observation tower built in in 1936 by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Panoramic views of the surrounding islands, the Cascade Mountains, and a variety of Canadian and American cities can be seen from the observation tower.
