"Our guides did an excellent job. They kept us laughing and seemed as happy to be there as we were" ~Judy Mitchell

Four days exploring the Pacific Northwest's San Juan Islands with local guides.

Experience the natural beauty of the San Juan Islands with Terra Trek on a four day adventure. Join us as we bike across Lopez, Orcas and San Juan Island. These majestic islands will lead you through beautiful winding hills, rolling pastures and along steep, breathtaking cliffs. You will have the opportunity to witness amazing wildlife such as bald eagles soaring over head or a chance to gaze into the eyes of a deer that crosses your path. Sound too good to be true? It's not! The San Juan's are abundant with wild life on land and at sea. Because there is so much to see, we also take a day to view marine mammals on a whale watch wildlife cruise or get close and personal with a guided sea kayak trip. The choice is yours. Here you may encounter an orca, minke whale, seal or sea lion in their natural environments. At the end of the day become mesmerized by some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world and relive the eternal memories from this TerraTrek vacation.

Day One
Our friendly local guides will greet you on scenic Lopez Island. We begin our bicycling journey along unpopulated winding roads that hug the shoreline. Ride through rolling pastures, past historical farmhouses and rest at a beautiful pebbled beach with a picturesque view of the Straight of Juan de Fuca. After a wonderful dinner in the Lopez Village, we retreat to the Inn at Swifts Bay where you can relax and prepare for more adventures tomorrow.

Day Two
This morning you will wake up to a gourmet breakfast made with fresh local fruits from the islands orchards. After everyone has said good bye to our wonderful hosts, we warm up with a ride to the ferry that will take us to Orcas Island. Once on Orcas, you will eat lunch prepared by your guides and then set off on scenic, less traveled side roads Rosario Resort where we will stay tonight. You will find this resort relaxing and full of things to do. This afternoon you will have the opportunity to visit Moran State Park where there are over 30 miles of hiking trails. For the adventurers at heart, you can ride to the top of 2,409 ft. high Mt. Constitution where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the San Juan Islands, the Cascade and Olympic Mountain ranges, Mount Rainier, Mount Baker and neighboring Canada. Tonight we will dine on fresh, local cuisine in the Orcas Room overlooking Cascade Bay. After dinner, go for a night cap in the Moran Lounge or take a romantic, moonlit stroll along the bay to end your evening.

Day Three
After a wonderful breakfast, we catch the ferry that takes us to Friday Harbor. This is home to many of our staff, so don't be surprised if your guides say hello to fellow islanders in passing! Because many of us are residents to this island paradise, we love to surprise you with special hospitality when visiting San Juan Island. Once in Friday Harbor, you can choose to take a whale watch/wild life cruise or go sea kayaking. On both tours you have the opportunity to see orcas, bald eagles, porpoise, seals, minke whales, seabirds and other marine life. The choice is yours! Tonight we will dine at Vinny's, one of the island's finest restaurants. Afterwards, you can retreat back to the Friday Harbor House, where you will be staying tonight. This inn is Friday Harbor's best with breathtaking views from a bluff overlooking the harbor. Centrally located in town, you are welcome to explore the night life or relax in your personal whirl bath jetted tub.

Day Four
Wake up with the sunrise right outside your window and prepare for a gorgeous ride to San Juan Island's historic American Camp (locally referred to as "South Beach"). Here you can hike along the sandy cliffs or stroll along the beaches and coves. We will enjoy a delicious picnic style lunch and then head back along scenic side roads to Friday Harbor to say our good byes until your next TerraTrek vacation!
