That's right, if you're an ACA member, you can join the ACA staff in the spectacular San Juan Islands of the Pacific Northwest.

In cooperation with Outdoor Adventures, you will be able to paddle with representatives from the ACA National Office, creating a better connection with those working daily on your behalf.  In addition, a percentage of each registration fee goes directly to support the on-going efforts of the ACA on behalf on all paddlers to fulfill our mission of Education, Stewardship, Recreation & Competition.

San Juan Islands

We have teamed with ACA Pro School, Outdoor Adventures, to offer a multi-day sea kayaking trip to the San Juan Islands in the Pacific Northwest off the coast of Washington State.  The San Juan Islands are a spectacular and secluded destination known for their natural beauty and relaxed "island time".  The San Juans are regularly included in National Geographic Adventure's Best Places... 

This 5-day trip is customized for the adventurous paddler.  Together, we'll explore the San Juan Islands' uninhabited State Park Islands and pristine coastal environment.  In addition to kayaking, there will be opportunities for hiking, beach combing, exploring, socializing, and relaxing! 

The trip will depart from Spencer Spit State Park on Lopez Island and eventually complete a circumnavigation of Orcas Island.  Midway through the trip, with tides and weather cooperating, we'll paddle through prime Orca Whale territory.  Gourmet meals, wildlife viewing, and kayak camping at its best!

Dates: June 14-18

Cost: $875 per person
