San Juan Islands Zip Tours, Friday Harbor

Adventures at San Juan Island Zip Tour begin with a brief orientation, followed by some practice on smaller zip lines. Then it's into the trees, where eight ziplines weave through a canopy of douglas firs and western red cedars. Each of the tour's ziplines is different: some reach heights of just 15 feet, while others soar to 50 feet, granting views typically reserved for birds and basketball players standing on each other's shoulders. As visitors sail from one platform to the next, they float over protected wetlands and lakes inhabited by otters. The family-friendly adventure lasts between two to three hours, all the while showcasing the beautiful natural landscape of San Juan Island.
