Bon Voyage!

January 6, 2022 By Ron

2022 begins with big news for Northwest Sailing Adventures! Mari and I founded Northwest Sailing Adventures in 2014. By the conclusion of the 2021 sailing season, we have logged many thousands of nautical miles and hosted hundreds of wonderful guests aboard Diminuendo. When we embarked on our venture in adventure, it was to fulfill our dream of sharing the joy of sailing and the wonders of nature in one of the world’s premier cruising grounds, the San Juan Islands.

Wildlife in the San Juan Islands

February 4, 2020 By Ron

Wildlife of the San Juan Islands and the Salish Sea The San Juan Islands are home and host to a variety of magnificent wildlife. Some make their homes here year round, others seasonally, still others only infrequently. One never forgets their first whale encounter. Yet even for those of us who call the Salish Sea home and see these creatures often, it never fails to inspire a sense of awe.

Neil Young and Daryl Hannah wedding

August 29, 2018 By Ron

You never know what you might see while exploring the San Juan Islands. Sure, you’re likely to see fabulous sunsets, nature trails and the occasional pod of orca whales. You usually wouldn’t associate the islands with movie stars and music legends, but apparently they enjoy the islands just as much as everyone else! We’d just hunkered down in Echo Bay on Sucia Island when Ron recognized a very distinctive historic wooden sailing yacht in the harbor. I suppose only a true fan such as Ron would … [Read more...]
