You have a boat? Excellent. We could use a ride to the San Juan Islands, your favorite place to float your boat. There are campgrounds here that are accessible only by water, small islands that exist only at low tide and big islands Orcas, San Juan and Lopez that are among the most beautiful places in Washington state. Oh, and did we mention the whale-watching?
