A Season of Great Escapes
The Pacific Northwest and BC Coast teem with excitement on the water for recreational boaters. Where will your journey begin?

Words by Steve Fennell

Boating is one of the most popular pastimes along the BC Coast and Pacific Northwest and before every season, we fill the pages of SunCruiser West Coast with insightful destinations, fresh trip ideas, as well as new services and attractions to make your adventure a truly unique experience.

Whether you set a course north up along the rugged BC coast or cruise south among the scenic San Juan Islands being surrounded by crystal clear open water, navigating through remote passages, anchoring in hidden bays, and enjoying all types of watersports are all the names of the game in these regions. From downrigging for salmon and taking a paddle through an inlet to just chilling on the hook for some downtime, there’s always something to do and experience - and it can be done in any given region and pretty much any time of the season.

What’s even better, there’s more of an opportunity in 2022 to enjoy this great pastime - and all of the associated activities - in Washington State following the lifting of the COVID-19 border restrictions, providing the chance to not only visit a new destination but revisit a favourite.

Communities like Blaine, Bellingham, Anacortes and Port Townsend all teem with stunning natural attractions, providing new thrills on the water and the chance to enjoy many types of services and attractions on land. While restrictions may be in place, it’s always best to visit local tourism websites and marinas or businesses to learn about modified hours and/or updated regulations...
