The Experience

Island to Island Biking Vacation in the Pacific Northwest

It’s so close, you can smell it. Sharp, fresh, invigorating. The sea air permeates every scene. San Juan harbors dappled with sunlight, sailboats flitting across the deep blue Puget Sound water. Washington State Ferries, bigger and more majestic than you’ve imagined, sound their call, the workhorses of the waterway. Off the ferry and onto a new island. Biking the country roads, each day is an adventure. Evergreen-lined lanes give way to rural pastures, then back again. But you’re never far from the water. What’s around the next corner? Time to find out. Island-hop by ferry, and pedal through stunningly diverse scenery, from conifer forests to farmland to seaports Wildlife cruise with a naturalist – you may spot an orca! The breathtaking panorama of islands, snow-covered Mount Baker and the Olympic Peninsula La Conner, a charming fishing village with a relaxed country feel Waterfront lodging and fresh Northwest cuisine
