Seaplane Flight + Whale Watching

SCENIC SEAPLANE FLIGHT FROM SEATTLE WITH A SAN JUAN ISLANDS WHALE WATCHING TOUR

Looking for the best and most scenic Seattle whale watching tour experience? First, you’ll fly via seaplane from Kenmore/Lake Washington direct to Friday Harbor Marina on San Juan Island. Then, a naturalist will guide you on a three-hour San Juan Islands whale watching tour with San Juan Safaris. More than 90 percent of the tours encounter whales ranging from orcas to gray whales, humpbacks, or minke whales. You’ll be absolutely immersed in the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest for an utterly unforgettable day or–better yet–a weekend.

Can be booked as a day trip or enjoy an overnight stay in Friday Harbor and return to Kenmore on a flight the following day.
