The San Juan Islands - 9781932310160

The San Juan Islands are a special cruising destination for all who visit. Anne & Laurence Yeadon-Jones have expanded their beautifully illustrated cruising guides, of Southern British Columbia, to include the U.S. San Juan Islands. According to Anne “The allure of this enchanting galaxy of islands lies in the short distances between destinations, the ease of provisioning and the friendly island charm of the villages and towns en route. Well maintained marinas and resorts offer an array of boating conveniences and many of the all-weather havens provide ample, protected anchorage and often excellent fishing and crabbing - making ideal Dreamspeaker destination.” This Dreamspeaker Cruising Guide to the San Juans also includes local county docks and the preserved wilderness of the San Juan Island's State Parks and their wildlife. Visitors have access to many beautiful beaches, freshwater lakes and natural marshes, shaded forest hikes, breathtaking vistas and intriguing historic sites. Laurence's detailed, hand-drawn charts illustrate safe approaches to anchorages and marinas and his beautiful color photographs portray the scenic splendor of these enchanting islands. Anne's wonderfully descriptive text provides vital information and local knowledge about each destination – plus fun tips to enhance the cruising experience. A truly boater-friendly guide, it's as much a pleasure to pore over while planning a trip at home, as it is plotting a course while underway.
