Day Sailing and Overnight Excursions

Sailing Day Trips in Bellingham Bay!

Even if you don’t have multiple days to devote to exploring the beautiful San Juan Islands, you might be surprised how much you can experience by boat on your own private day trip around Bellingham Bay. This is a great way to spend a little quality time with family, friends, or co-workers. Cruises are 3 to 6 hours in duration.

Just a few miles yet seemingly worlds away, Chuckanut Bay offers a tantalizing taste of what exemplifies the San Juan Islands. Experience the excitement of arriving under sail from Bellingham Bay. Observe marine wildlife up close in their natural environment. Watch bald eagles as they nest in the trees on Chuckanut Island and seals basking on the rocks. You may even spot deer as they wander the shoreline!

Diminuendo can host up to six guests on your day trip. You’re welcome to bring your choice of alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages. Hors d’oeuvres, snacks, or a sack lunch are always a hit with your party. We’ll provide plates, glasses, and flatware.

Day trips are a great way to test the waters to see if you’re up for a longer sailing adventure in the future!

Two Day Overnight sailing adventures!

Not enough time for an extended sailing adventure? Want to try a shorter cruise to see if it’s your cup of tea? A 2 day overnight cruise might be perfect for you! We’ll spend a delightful day under sail, arriving at your destination in time to enjoy a shore excursion or a little kayaking before a gourmet dinner served aboard. You’ll enjoy a pleasant evening in a snug cove and a restful night in your luxurious cabin. After breakfast, you may explore the island a bit more before we set sail for Bellingham. Possible destinations include Sucia Island, Cypress Island, or San Juan Island.
