All Aboard Sailing

All the J’s and first return of the year from K’s – Our Southern Resident Orcas

South: 50 nautical miles roundtrip. Eastern Bank to Dungeness. All the J’s and the first return of the year of the K’s. Party! Spectacular vocals and excitement in the air as they fished together on the banks south of San Juan Island. Our adventurous passengers met us on the beach of Lopez Island, thanks to folks at The Edenwild!
