Coastal Pacific Northwest
The Coast of Washington State and British Columbia

Endless discoveries and a boater’s paradise on this beautiful and protected coast. Protected from the ravages of open ocean swells and winds by the Olympic Peninsula and Vancouver Island. Further protected by scores of islands of all sizes, and landforms of all shapes, all of which make a vast network of channels, bays, sounds and inlets. Puget Sound, Washington State San Juan Islands, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Admiralty Inlet, British Columbia Gulf Islands, Discovery Islands and Queen Charlotte Islands, Strait of Georgia, Vancouver Island, the Inside Passage to Alaska.

“Nothing can be more striking than the beauty of these waters… the finest in the world. Nothing can exceed the beauty of these waters… I venture nothing in saying that there is no country in the world that possesses waters equal to these.
To describe the beauties of this region will, on some future occasion, be a very grateful task to the pen of a skillful panegyrist. The serenity of the climate, the innumerable pleasing landscapes, and the abundant fertility that unassisted nature puts forth, require only to be enriched by the industry of man with villages, mansions, cottages, and other buildings, to render it most lovely country that can be imagined” –George Vancouver in Describing Puget Sound and the islands of the inland sea. In April 1792, George Vancouver entered the Strait of Juan de Fuca and commenced his exploration of Puget Sound. He named every island, mountain, waterway, and point of land in sight -- 75 in all.

Emerald-clothed islands, unspoiled and uncluttered, pleasant quiet beaches, hospitable harbors and anchorages and peaceful retreats – all offer escape from the cares and noise of everyday life. The sun sends its glistening jewels to dance on the rippling water and the green of the forested islands is reflected in the mirror of a bay. The splendor of the water, passages, inlets, coves and bays. Pine-scented breezes on a foggy or rainy day, the aroma of alder wood smoke and saltwater lapping along island shores. There are innumerable waterways of all kinds, islands, bays, coves, inlets, passages, driftwood shores and distant mountains of incredible beauty offering a lifetime of enjoyment, wonder and appreciation of nature as we are blessed with a rare heritage.

Captain Vancouver’s description and projection are true, and this corner of the world must certainly be set apart as one of the most scenic and enjoyable on earth. The Pacific Northwest offers the finest landscape to be found anywhere in the world. A spectacular Sea Chest of maritime delight.

The inland sea of Washington State and British Columbia is one of the world’s most lovely areas. Like beautiful green gems in blue settings, the islands are full of contrasts with forested hills and smooth, green pastures, wide expanses of sandy beaches, as well as steep craggy cliffs dropping sharply to the sea below. Sleepy, quiet. Old-fashioned villages with harbors sheltering sailing yachts, cruisers and fishing boats of all types.

The San Juan and Gulf Islands, a Pacific Northwest paradise. Geographically they are one, separated only by an imaginary line called the international boundary. Sharing a common geology of uplifted and faulted sandstone extending in a northwest- southeast line for 75 nautical miles known as Chuckanut Sandstone. This archipelago, stretching from Deception Pass, Anacortes and Bellingham on the Southeast to Victoria, Sidney and Nanaimo on the northwest, embraces hundreds of islands of all shapes and sizes, as well as rocky islets and submerged reefs.

The solitude of tiny, hidden anchor sites and the beauty of natural surroundings beckons. An indescribable chain of many islands. A peaceful splendor that will capture your heart. There are scenic beaches, woodlands, green hills and snow-capped mountains in the distance. The meandering inland sea, with its many enthralling charms, captivates and sooths the mind, renews the body and transports us from a demanding civilization to a realm of quiet peace and relaxation. A wealth of seafood, birds, shore-side wildlife satisfy the soul. The San Juan Islands are magic, the Gulf Islands are enchanting. Experience the west coast rugged beauty and audacious grandeur and find communion with nature.
