Details About San Juan Islands

Destinations » Alaska » Alaska » San Juan Islands


The island averages only about half as much yearly rainfall as Seattle and sees sunshine about 247 days out of the year, far more than the rest of the Pacific Northwest. San Juan Island is an enchanting place where gentle breezes push the smell of sea air across fields of lavender, orca whales splash through sparkling seas and majestic bald eagles soar through unparalleled sunsets.
