San Juan Island, Washington

About the Island

Escape to the beauty of the San Juan Islands. The slower pace of life here in the islands makes it easy to relax and enjoy the wonder of nature that surrounds you.

The Dancing Waters Guest House is conveniently located within walking distance of Friday Harbor where you have your pick of fine restaurants, interesting shops or art galleries to visit. If you choose to walk on the ferry, there are a number of locations in town to rent a car, bike or moped to get out and see the rest of the island.

Enjoy a picnic lunch or leisurely stroll along Jackson's Beach, just minutes from our door. Get close to the resident pods of orca whales, soaring eagles, and other wildlife aboard a local whale watch cruise. See a different view of the island out on the water in a kayak. Or visit one of the many other beaches, parks and historical landmarks throughout San Juan Island.

There is so much to see and do. Here are some helpful local links to get you started:
