Roche Harbor is located on San Juan Island and it is one of the most beatiful places in the world. Definitely a must on a visit any time of the year.

We have gone out with Zip San Juan for the past three years. This year we brought our foster son along for his HS graduation celebration. The guides are fun and knowledgeable of the area. The course it not "challenging", but it is a lot of fun, For something different, consider a zip line tour just outside of Friday Harbor

This experience could not have been better! My girlfriend and I went for her 23rd birthday and it was both of our first time zipping! Our guides were Brian and Ace who made the experience perfect. They made everyone so conformable and confident! I could write for hours about every amazing detail but I think the five stars can do... More

Zip San Juan is a fun and exhilarating addition to an already lovely travel destination. There is already plenty of shopping, eating, and sight (and whale) seeing, but zip lining adds a little extra color to the day. The tour guides are capable and friendly, and the gear was in excellent repair. The course itself is nicely laid out, with... More

We had the opportunity to spend a day in Friday Harbor during the early part of May. We parked our car at the ferry in Anacortes ($10 for 24 hours) parking lot and rode the ferry over ($12.45pp to walk on roundtrip). The ferry ride is very nice with several decks and lots of outside and inside viewing. The ferry... More

If you have even a mild sense of adventure, go on this zip line tour! It is extremely fun, and even though I am not the best with heights I felt comfortable the whole time, because you are always clipped into something while up high. The guides Matt and Brian were extremely nice and knowledgeable, and Brian has an absolutely... More

I love Friday Harbor..a beautiful Ferry ride to the San Juan Islands. There is a restaurant that faces the Harbor that is beautiful. Walking around town is so fun. Hardware stores with personality, restaurants where the owners greet you and a place from which you can do a day trip or go to catch a whale watching tour. By the... More

San Juan Island is such a beautiful place, and getting the chance to see it from the inside like this is just too amazing to explain. Zip San Juan's patient and friendly guides make this a fun and easy activity for anyone.
