Itinerary

Itineraries are dependent on weather and tides and may change at the captain’s discretion.

This abbreviated version of our normal 6-day San Juan Island Cruise allows you to fully experience the Bellingham SeaFeast Festival ashore before casting dock lines and setting course to spend 3 nights/4 days in the San Juans. Spend time with local fishers and craftspeople on the working waterfront, then sail into the islands to witness fall at its finest aboard a vessel that has carried scientists and storytellers for over 90 years. SeaFeast to San Juans is an exclusive voyage aboard the famously historic wooden vessel, Catalyst.

To fully immerse yourself in SeaFeast, we recommend you arrive in Bellingham on September 26th or 27th, find yourself some lodging, (we love the Bellwether), choose your own adventure throughout the weekend at SeaFeast, and then join us on Sunday afternoon for this incredible experience.
