SLOWLY DIP down from the comfort of your own balcony after you ’ ve scrubbed the dirt and washed the sand off your little ones from a long day of exploring . Instead of battling crowds and waiting in lines , introduce your children to the finer things in life like clams caught a mere steps from where they are eaten . Spend your mornings walking out to an island made accessible only by low tide .
Listen in awe at the excited squeals from each discovery of sea stars , sea cucumbers , and crabs . Spend the day whale-watching and the evening on a sunset sail . From Lopez to Orcas and San Juan Island , each has its own distinct sense of place and will have a unique draw to visitors . When you cannot decide which island is right for you , don ’ t . Instead , plan an “ island-hopping ” adventure , combining the best of what a couple of islands have to offer .
