Fisherman Bay & Lopez Island Airport

Find seclusion and splendor on Lopez Island

DIRECT LAND AND SEAPLANE FLIGHTS FROM SEATTLE TO LOPEZ ISLAND

The easternmost island in the San Juans is also the most laid back so take a deep breath once you arrive in the protected inlet at Fisherman Bay, step onto the dock, and relax. Things are a little more leisurely here on the Friendly Isle. Lopez Island is 15 miles long with 63 miles of shoreline and everything from forests to farms to the Lopez Island Vineyards and Winery.

A ferry trip to Lopez Island starts with a long drive north to Anacortes. Far faster and convenient, a Kenmore Air floatplane flight from Seattle gets you there in about an hour, which gives you more time to relax into the all-natural beauty whether it’s looking out on the lagoon at Spencer Spit State Park or walking the rocky shoreline of Shark Reef Sanctuary. Land plane flights with Kenmore Air Express from Boeing Field to Lopez Island Airport are also available Nov – Mar (with ground transportation available to Sea-Tac Airport). Furthermore, a meal at the serene Ursa Minor is a must for upscale island-sourced fare and a well-appointed wine list. It’s no wonder why so many artists and craftspeople are drawn to the seclusion and the simplicity that is found here. Don’t be surprised if some of them wave. Remember, it’s the Friendly Isle.

ACCOMMODATIONS

Odlin County Park and Spencer Spit State Park both offer some of the best camping in the state. Lopez Farms has sites, too, in addition to cottages. But if you’re looking for something less rustic the Lopez Islander Resort and The Edenwild Boutique Inn are a pair of solid choices.
