Welcome to the San Juan Islands!
We are located in a beautiful maritime archipelago of 743 islands (428 at high tide!)
in the northwest corner of Washington State (USA). Of these, 60 islands are inhabited
and four (Lopez, Shaw, Orcas, and San Juan) are served by Washington State Ferries,
sailing from Anacortes, Washington. All of the ferry-served islands have shoreline
County parks and/or campgrounds maintained by the San Juan County Park Board. Find
ferry information here.
Come enjoy our islands and visit any of our seventeen parks located on San Juan, Lopez, Orcas and Shaw Island. Camp in one of our 3 overnight park accommodations on San Juan, Lopez or Shaw Island.
Save time, gas, & money - leave your
car at the Anacortes ferry terminal and cycle or walk on the ferry. Taxi & transit
companies can deliver you to your desired location (except on Shaw Island). Inquire
with the San Juan Islands Visitors Bureau at 888-468-3701 or visit www.visitsanjuans.com. The Visitors Bureau also has these
great tips to ease summer ferry travel.

If you are interested in using any San Juan
County park for a part of a commercial enterprise, as a base for a group activity,
or for a special event such as a wedding, birthday party or reception, please contact
the Park Superintendent’s office at 360-378-8420. You can read further by going
to Camping and scrolling
down to the appropriate section.
The islands are quieter during the off-season
(October thru April) and the weather can be delightful. Community events and activities
are scheduled year 'round. (Click here for a sampling of events. Adobe® Acrobat® file.) Come
enjoy the San Juans like the locals do! Enjoy more relaxed camping and reduced fees
during winter, too.
