San Juan Island on the northern border of Washington State, is a true Pacific Northwest treasure. The Island and its cute coastal town of Friday Harbor are just 65 miles from Seattle, Washington and Vancouver, British Columbia, yet feel worlds away. Astonishing, beautiful, tranquil, majestic and unspoiled, San Juan Island has its own relaxed pace of life, a deep culture of rugged outdoor fun, and a strong connection to nature and the arts.

Lovingly protected by the Olympic rain shadow, the isle gets nearly 250 days of sunshine each year and only about half the annual rainfall of nearby Seattle, making San Juan Island a particularly charming destination during Washington State's rainy season.
