Frequently Asked Questions​

 

Women’s kayak tours in Friday Harbor are lead by female guides and all the guests are women. The routes/itineraries are similar to our coed tours.

Our women’s only kayak tours are most popular with groups of friends and family. We have many women’s tour offers so if you are traveling solo ask us which dates other female travelers have booked in so you have the highest likelihood of securing a spot. Occasionally we cannot run our women’s tours due to small group sizes and in these cases there is almost always the option to join one of our coed trips.
