ALERT ! ! ! San Juan County Park Users (San Juan Island) ~
Between May 1, 2010 and September 30, 2010, a permit is required for all vessels launching from San Juan County Park. Permits are available from the San Juan Park office (at Smallpox Bay) 8:00a.m. to 8:00p.m. daily beginning May 1st, 2010.
Vessel operators will be required to attend a whale watch 'best practices' education program prior to receiving a permit. If you are paddling with one of our permitted kayak outfitters, a Parks permit is not required; the kayak guide will provide your training.
