Sunset Kayak
Tucked in the Strait of Juan de Fuca , at the watery edge of the US and Canadian border , the San Juan Islands are a kayaker ’ s paradise . The more than 170 islands and inlets are sheltered from the biggest ocean swells . This is thanks to their neighboring landmasses — the Olympic Peninsula and Vancouver Island . More so than any other vessel , the sea kayak allows you to see the shore and waterways from an angle that would otherwise be inaccessible . With a minimal below-surface profile , the kayak can navigate past rocky shorelines . The wide and sturdy base lets these man-powered crafts cut through waves — from Mother Nature and larger vessels .
