As a person that had never sea kayaked I was a little nervous, until our guide started his orientation session. He was very thorough, professional, and made sure all questions were answered. We loaded up and then our guide checked to make sure each person was set up correctly, even those that said they did this all the time! We... More

We had a great experience. We are novice kayakers, and our guide was patient and informative from skills we needed to his knowledge of the ocean and surrounding wildlife. We will definitely be returning to the San Juans and Crystal Seas! Dan and Anna Colorado More

4 day Inn to Inn: Accommodations were top notch with beautiful views. Day trips were well planned and the food was excellent. We WILL do it again. The trip would have been great even if we hadn't seen the whales. More

A worthwhile three hour trip! We were lucky that the weather was nice. We got to see baby seals, salmon jumping out from water, and a lot of sea stars. Our guide (think her name is Sarah? not sure) is very nice and professional. With an Environment Education degree, she provided us a lot of information about the natural environment... More

Went with my wife and 70 year old mother and we all had a great time. The guide was in the Kayak with mom and she had a blast. Can't wait to go again. Well worth the money. More

We did see seals (including a pup) and eagles and got to explore a really cool cave and kelp bed. We'd never been on this side of the... More

We purchased a Groupon for Crystal Seas and used it on a weekend in September. Our guide Sasha, was really friendly and helpful. We had kayaked before, but a couple of people in the group hadn't and he took the time to explain everything before we set out. We didn't see any Orcas unfortunately but one harbor seal followed us... More

Despite traveling alone I met some great people and never felt lonely. Our guide Kelly was excellent. She was... More

My family had a wonderful 3 day adventure with Crystal Seas Kayaking. We Sea Kayaked and camped in the San Juan Islands. It was just our family of 5, our kids ages 8, 14, 16 and our guide Jordan. All had a great time and easily handled the kayaking. Jordan helped with the camping and gourmet cooking which was great.... More
