We went on a night kayak tour in late October, and had a wonderful time. Our guide, Ben was super friendly and easy to talk to and shared tons of interesting information about the ecology of the island. We were expecting to get pretty cold but we were kept warm and dry and had a great, relaxing paddle and were able to see lots of bioluminescence. We’d love to go again!

We were lucky enough to enjoy a bucket list trip to San Juan Island to go on the Bioluminescence night kayaking trip with Sea Quest. The experience was excellent from start to finish, we all felt safe even though we were not all experienced at kayaking. The bioluminescence was simply breathtaking and our guide Jeff was very helpful, knowledgeable and good company. We would definitely recommend.

Heather was amazing yesterday! We appreciated her kindness and knowledge of the region. No Orcas, but we saw a lot of other wildlife and had a great time kayaking.

Heather was a Fantastic Guide! Thanks for the great day.

We did a guided birding tour with Mark Lewis and he was fantastic!! He brought us to four or five different locations around San Juan islands and filled us in on the history and geography and flora and science of everything around us!!

Our guide, Jeff, was knowledgeable, kind, and professional. Tour included inexperienced kayakers and Jeff was awesome getting us set up and out in the water. Got to see bioluminescent phytoplankton! Incredible to see, and having an excellent experienced guide made all the difference. Highly recommended

Really fun and professional!

Took a day trip with my wife and sister in August 2024. Everything was great with all interactions with the company and even the water was perfect and calm. I will gladly work with this company again.

We got stuck in some very sudden nightmare weather that almost blew us over. Page, Caleb, and Shawn were very quick to respond and got everyone home safely. I'd want them as our guides on the next one.

We had a magical time with the bioluminescent kayak tour! Eliza and Dana were phenomenal guides!

The bioluminescence tour was AMAZING! Heather and Marco were the perfect guides for a group with diverse abilities going out into the night. They were patient and encouraging. The bioluminescence in the water was indescribably beautiful and magical. Every paddle action created a scene of sparkling diamonds in the water! The occasional jellyfish outlined in “lights” was a delight. Don’t miss this experience!

Our group of 8 women had an epic adventure with our amazing guide Heather! From the BEST campsite with sunset views from our tent, to the expert navigation across the San Juan channels, to her fun hospitality. We’d pick Sea-Quest tours and Heather 1000 times!!

Wir hatten eine wunderbare zweitägige Tour in den San Juan Islands. Sehr kompetenter Guide namens Caleb, wunderschöne Natur, gute Kayaks.

We did the bioluminescence tour with Ben and he was great! He had a lot of knowledge and was able to explain exactly what we were seeing and just made the whole trip fun:-) Thank you, Ben!

My friend and I went on the three-day/two-night kayak trip through some of the San Juan Islands this past July 9-11, 2014. We had great weather and an excellent guide Caleb, and his able assistant Paige. Caleb, at the ripe old age of 23 is mature, experienced and so knowledgeable beyond his age.

He is living his passion and it was an inspiration to listen, learn and experience all that he has to offer. His knowledge of kayaking, camping, and his love of the San Juan Islands was so apparent to us. His level of species identification in both flora and fauna is impeccable. His appreciation and depth of knowledge on the ocean environment and sustainability was endless. We felt safe with his directions in the water and had a great time camping. He and Paige were great hosts.

One tip would be to not pack too much at this time of the year. One water resistant top for the campground will do. Booties are advisable. Rocks under your feet and toes getting in and out are not very comfortable and limits your ability to move your boat, etc. Sunscreen for sure and lightweight wool socks are GREAT! Sandals for the campground are fine. Binoculars are definitely a plus, unless you have 20/15 eyesight like Caleb. Ha!

He is also something of a "Whale Whisperer" as we called him. His pinpoint sense of where whales, dolphins and other sea life may be was always right on. On our second day we were lucky enough to see a transient pod/family trolling the waters in the late morning. In the evening, we camped on Turn Island and I truly believe it was because Caleb had an idea that the same pod might be headed in that direction.

After dinner, the same pod was seen coming toward the island and a strait where they were hunting seals. To ultimately see nature in a purest sense taking place from the island and anywhere from 100- 1000 feet away was amazing. The breaching, dorsal fins, herding mannerisms of the whales was riveting. It can't happen like that on every trip, but being with Caleb you knew it wasn't because he wasn't trying.

Even if we hadn't been so lucky to see the whales, the kayaking was blissful and it was just astounding that Caleb had an answer for virtually every question we had. Toward the end, we joked while paddling through a few afternoon choppy seas "We must be able to come up with a question!" "What doesn't he know?" And then, we just laughed.

It was a perfect trip! I would recommend the three-day kayaking trip to anyone with reasonable kayaking skills. And being that we were in tandems, that makes the trip that much more enjoyable. Teamwork Rules!!! Thanks to Sea Quest for answering pre-trip questions and special thanks to the incredible Caleb and Paige.
