We've had great success this week on our whale watching trips. For the most part, the whales have been traveling in and through Haro Strait which is quite convenient as our whale watching boat departs out of Roche Harbor daily and is located on the West Side of San Juan Island. We are just minutes from Haro Strait which means that we haven't had to travel too far.
Our kayaking trips have also had some success seeing the whales. Just a few evenings ago our 6:00 sunset trip was able to see the whales and yesterday, our afternoon trips were also able to see the whales from the kayaks. They have also been seeing Harbor Seals, Bald Eagles, Great Blue Herons, and other marine life.
Weather has also pick-up over the past few days. We had a few days with foul weather but yesterday and today have had blue skies and warm temperatures. August typically has very nice weather so let's hope for the best this month.
