Sucia is only accessible by private boat. Its remote and undeveloped character make it a haven for wildlife and its large protected bays make it a wonderful setting for any kayaker, novice or advanced. Sucia has caves, fossil beds, spectacular sandstone formations and a wide variety of wildlife. One can encounter bald eagles, osprey, harlequin ducks, river otters, harbor seals, sea lions, porpoise and even the occasional orca whale!
We shuttle kayakers to Sucia Island via power boat after checking in at 9:00 AM. After a brief kayaking safety orientation, you and your guide will hop in your kayaks for a 4 to 5 hour paddle which includes a lunch stop (lunch is not provided) and short hike at a remote beach. As we paddle around the island, we stop by prime wildlife viewing locations and explore some of Sucia’s natural history. You will then be shuttled back to Orcas by power boat.
