Women-only Kayaking Vacations in the San Juan Islands

Join us for your summer vacation on a women-only kayak tour from San Juan Island. Enjoy the sunny and scenic surroundings the archipelago offers to get outdoors in a safe and supportive environment with like-minded women. Our female guides can take you sea kayaking in the premiere orca whale watching waters, regardless of your experience level. Sea Quest was the first company to offer women kayak trips from San Juan Island, the first outfitter based here to have women guides, and the first to have a woman in the role of expedition director and partner.

So come and experience the best that the San Juan Islands offer: beautiful beaches, remote islands, rugged mountain views, and inspiring sunrises and sunsets. The region boasts the driest summer climate of anywhere in the US so the chance or rain spoiling your vacation is quite low. Excellent weather, abundant whales and wildlife, and hundreds of islands combine to make our women-only tours the ultimate sea kayaking vacation and camping adventure.

Sea Quest has two, three, and five-day women’s kayaking vacations which run regularly. If you can’t find a scheduled trip that works for you, don’t hesitate to let us know what your ideal dates are and we will schedule a custom tour to suit your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do women's kayak tours differ from regular kayak tours?

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.

How popular are women's only kayak tours in the San Juan Islands?

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.
