Kayak Saratoga Passage

One of the most scenic paddling experiences on Whidbey Island is kayaking through the  protected waters of Saratoga Passage. Stretching between Whidbey Island and Camano Island, this waterway offers stunning views of the Cascade Mountains, forested shorelines, and abundant marine life.

Whether you’re a beginner or experienced kayaker, the gentle currents and sheltered coves make for an enjoyable day on the water. Keep your eyes peeled for seals, porpoises, bald eagles, and even the occasional gray whale. Launch points are available in Langley, Baby Island, and other coastal spots, and local outfitters offer rentals and guided tours.

It’s a peaceful and immersive way to experience the natural beauty of Whidbey Island—from the water up.
