Your Day In The Islands
Travel with Kenmore Air, which has 60 years of flying experience, to the charming seaside village of Friday Harbor on San Juan Island, and tour with San Juan Safaris Whale Watching, in business since 1994.
We make it so easy. The seaplane base in Seattle on Lake Union is a short taxi ride from any downtown Seattle hotel. (Departures can also be made from Lake Washington.)

Your spectacular flight will bring you to the docks at Friday Harbor where your pilot will direct you to our waterfront office for check in.
Steps away is the charming village where you can enjoy art galleries and shops, sip a latte, stop for lunch in one of the many restaurants, rent a bike or moped or, like many of our city-weary guests, just sit and stare out at the boats and the ocean.
Board your whale watch vessel for a 3.5-hour adventure with San Juan Safaris on a new Coast Guard-inspected, 55-foot-long vessel, the Sea Lion.
When the tour finishes, the boat pulls back into the slip in Friday Harbor where the tour began. You may then have time for a bit more shopping or a bite to eat. Perhaps you will stay a night or two? Yes, we can arrange that also.
If you are going back to Seattle, then you have a short walk down a dock back to your seaplane. Check in is 15 minutes prior to departure. 40 minutes later you'll be back in Seattle.
