Sucia Island State Park

One of the true gems of the San Juans lies up north on the Canadian border. San Juan Cruises can take you out to this exclusive island that is only accessible by private yacht or charter vessel. Bring your friends and family out for a beach picnic and nature walk on this stunning island.

Depart the Bellingham Cruise Terminal aboard one of our tour vessels, with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. You’ll enjoy two hours on this scenic cruise to Sucia Island watching for wildlife as your captain tells you interesting stories and explains the natural history of this unique part of the San Juan Islands.

Once we dock at Fossil Bay, our naturalist will take you on a narrated beach walk, or you have the option of exploring the island on your own.

Picnic On The Beach

Included is a delicious picnic lunch on the island, freshly prepared daily by our crew, and packed into an insulated tote that you get to keep after the cruise! You may choose to have lunch at a nearby picnic table, take it to the beach, or stroll along one of many trails on the island to find a special spot of your own.

Lunch includes a salmon caesar salad wrap, potato salad, potato chips, fresh fruit, and dessert. You will also be provided with a mini water bottle and your choice of soda.

TESTIMONIALS

“Wonderful Crew! What an excellent way to spend a summer Sunday. Thoroughly enjoyable, excellent picnic lunch, and such beautiful scenery. Money well-spent for this fabulous time, and looking forward to the crab dinner cruise–thanks again!”

“We took the day trip to Sucia island, a Washington State Park accessible only by boat. The captain provided interesting commentary along the way (~1 1/2 hours), and staff were very knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw. We had 2+ hours on the island – time for a short hike before gathering together for a lunch (fried chicken, potato salad, brownies and a split of sparkling wine). On the return trip, we went by a slightly different route so we saw different views and different birds. While we were expecting to have a good time, we agreed that because of the staff, this trip exceeded expectations. I highly recommend San Juan Cruises.”
