Central location to everything on Orcas Island

DIRECT FLIGHTS FROM SEATTLE TO ORCAS ISLAND

Hop aboard a direct Kenmore Air flight from Seattle to Orcas Island and you’ll arrive at Eastsound Orcas Island Airport, less than a mile from the biggest town on Orcas Island, which is the largest island in the San Juan Islands. Eastsound pulses with local businesses, shops featuring island-crafted goods, and restaurants that specialize in island-grown produce and local seafood. There’s even an outdoor performance stage, the Village Green, in the middle of it all.

Taking the ferry requires a lengthy drive to Anacortes, but with Kenmore Air Express, a 40-minute flight from Boeing Field puts you at the airport less than a mile from town. If you travel into Sea-Tac airport, you can take our Sea-Tac shuttle service to connect with your Kenmore Air flight from Boeing Field. Eastsound sits at the northern edge of this horseshoe-shaped island, right where the eastern and western halves come together. Head to the hiker’s paradise that is Moran State Park on the western half of the island, go east to Turtleback Summit or get out on the water, see some whales, wildlife, and the lushly forested hills that earned Orcas its nickname of “Emerald Isle” as the gem of the San Juans.

ACTIVITIES

A vineyard, a brewery, whale-watching trips and fishing charters, they’re all available on this stunning island retreat. And as for the island itself, the hills make for incredible views whether it’s reaching Turtlehead Summit or hiking up to the observation tower atop Mount Constitution, the highest point in all the San Juan Islands. Orcas was once the center of the fruit-packing industry, and the legacy can be tasted at the stands found all over the island.
