Charter our luxury yacht and cruise the San Juan Islands at your own pace!

San Juan Island cruises

Discovery is available for charter in the San Juan Islands from mid-September through early May, which we believe is the ideal time to visit. Sheltered by the Olympic Mountains’ rain shadow, the San Juans enjoy sunshine an average of 247 days a year, making them a popular and often busy cruising destination.

The Indian summer months, especially September and October, along with the fresh beauty of spring, offer a rare chance to experience this island archipelago without the crowds. It’s our favorite time of year to be on the water.
