It’s behind a paywall, but encourage support of local news outlets. There’s a $1 option for 24 hours access if you so desire. But, the short version is we are being allowed to operate again out of Larrabee State Park with a few exceptions. For the rest of the season, we will run 2 more tours from Fairhaven and the rest from Larrabee! While this is a big win for us, we don’t believe the fight for access is over just yet. Thank you to everyone who reached out in support of us and to those who wrote emails! This win demonstrates the true strength of community and we’re so grateful to each and every one of you! We have only a handful of openings left for this year’s bioluminescence tours, so if you’ve been waiting to book, I wouldn’t wait any longer.

Tours allowed to launch from state park for remainder of season

We have a two spots that opened up for our camp this summer August 12-16. Call or click to grab these spots!

We are also trying to fill some spots for the week of August 26th. I know Bellingham is back in school that week, but I've had some request a partial week and I've had some in other school districts and home school enroll that week. We would love to get at least 5 more spots filled so we can run it for the kids who are already signed up.

Fun adventure summer day camp for kids around Bellingham and Whatcom County. Outdoor activities include kayaking, snorkeling, tide pooling, hiking, arts and crafts, and much more!

06/08/2024

My dear friends! I need your help! Larrabee State Park is cutting off our access to run our most popular tour this season and for the foreseeable future. They completely blindsided us at the beginning of our season. Please contact the state park commissioners and the manager of the park to let them know how utterly unfair this is to the public as water access is very limited in Bellingham, especially at night. Beyond being unfair to the public, this threatens our business and our ability to keep guides on staff. They have given no viable explanation for this, just a hard no.

Here’s a little more info on what’s going on:

We’ve been allowed to run bioluminescence tours out of Larrabee State Park since 2019. We had to ask permission, which they gave us. We also pay the appropriate permit fees every year. Out of the blue and at the start of our season, they told us we could no longer run them. They cited a couple of reasons. 1) They were concerned about the impact of our tours on the environment. This is ludicrous as they allow motor boats by the hundreds to destroy the eel grass habitat every summer. 2) They didn’t realize how much attention this would bring to the bioluminescence at the park and too many unauthorized people are accessing the park after it closes. We have always had a key and are vigilant about locking the gate before, during and after our tours. We also ask people to leave if they are not with our tours. Keeping us out will not keep people intent on trespassing out.

Here is how to contact everyone:

What a harrowing experience and a reminder to know your limits when kayaking. We offer classes for beginners to help you navigate the calm waters in Bellingham Bay as well as intermediate classes to explore and test your limits before setting out on an expedition of your own. Contact us to schedule a class!

Few sea kayaking videos open with a viewer discretion warning, but Richard Chen’s brutally raw Beyond the Salish is the exception.

Exciting news! Happy Orcas Adventure Camp has opened one more week this summer! Somehow we missed that our friends down in Skagit County have an extra week off for the summer, so we decided to open the week of August 26th for enrollment. We also have a very few spots open on the other 9 weeks, so don’t wait any longer to get your kids signed up!

Wow! I was sifting through photos from the last year or so and my heart fills with so much gratitude for all the women I know well, the women I’ve met along the way, and the women who have inspired and helped shape me into the woman I am today. Happy International Women’s Day to all the badass women out there!

Happy solstice! Looking forward to longer days and the sun rising higher in the sky ❄️☀️
These long, dark days have given me time to reflect on all that I’m truly grateful for. Thank you to everyone who has been part of making this “kayak thing” a reality. My heart is full and I’m so excited to ring in the new year and share some exciting new programs that we’ll be bringing to you this summer! Stay tuned! Love and light to all 🫶🏼 - Tori

Follow along on our journey to California to pick up some boats for our fleet! I loved paddling this Eddyline Fathom LV just as much as my flagship Fathom. Eddyline doesn't make the LV model anymore, but they do have a great line of boats that you can check out on their website, or come paddle one with us!

People ask us all the time about what makes the bioluminescence happen.. here’s a great short documentary that explains it just a little better. The short answer I always give is, it’s just magic!

Humankind’s effort to understand bioluminescence spans thousands of years. Even though it’s one of the oldest fields of scientific study, answers remain elus...
