How to go to the San Juan islands by Hudzo

"Beautiful place, can't wait to go back"

How I did it: My cousin actually got married on San Juan in Roche Harbor. We flew into SeaTac first, and ate lunch in Seattle at Pike Street Market, then caught a Kenmore Air pontoon plane to Roche Harbor. This aspect of the trip alone was more than worth it and I HIGHLY recommend taking it if you plan on visiting: you get a great view of the Puget Sound with all the lush green islands, plus takeoff and landing is a wholly unique experience.

San Juan itself was fantastic: we went in early fall and the weather was unbelievable: we kayaked around Pearl and Henry Islands and saw Orca pods coming up the coast. The air was so clean and fresh and the people were great.

Their guest book is signed by Teddy Roosevelt and John Wayne!  It's rustic and has a kickass view!

    My first airplane flight was to San Juan from Chicago O’Hare. I was about 13. The difference in the airports alone was such culture shock. It seemed the moving walkways were replaced by caged animals. And it was painted pink and blue! I loved it. It felt more natural to me at the time.
