Top 7 Spas & Wellness in San Juan Islands, San Juan Islands
Start your Pacific Northwest vacation in style, with a seaplane or ferry ride to the San Juan Islands from Seattle. It’s the ultimate way to take in the beauty of this region that Mother Nature has so abundantly blessed. You have a choice of three alluring islands – Lopez, the most rural, a mix of rolling farmland and beaches; Orcas, the largest of the San Juan Islands and replete with verdant mountains and placid lakes; and San Juan Island, where vibrant Friday Harbor welcomes ferry and seaplane guests and offers an array of charming accommodations and gourmet eateries.
Whether it’s whale-watching and sea kayaking, touring an art gallery or browsing a local farmers’ market, the San Juan Islands offer pleasing diversions for every age and interest. For the best chance to view orca whales and other sea life, plan your trip between April and September – a number of tour operators are available throughout the islands. Rev up your energy level with biking tours through rolling meadows and farmland, go birding on San Juan Island, hike the region’s modest mountains – offering outstanding vistas from the top – or go charter fishing for the day. Other favorites include hiking to Lime Kiln Lighthouse on San Juan Island, taking a scenic flight over the area, attending an outdoor summer concert in the park and horseback riding.

My husband gave me the gift of a 90-minute massage from Afterglow. They treated me like royalty. I was greeted by Adam one of the massage therapists. He was fantastic. If I could see this guy every week I would. He worked my tired muscles with lavender oil and a firm but gentle therapeutic touch. I sat in the steam room for longer than I should have but, I couldn't help it...it felt so good. Please tell Adam he did a great job.

Massage by the Sea has a lovely atmosphere, with mermaid iconography abundant, and the vibes you get when you're sitting in the lobby, reinforce the level of care that Roxanne (the owner) displays toward your body. She utilizes hot stones, essential oils in ayurvedic fashion, Tibetan Singing Bowls, Tuning Forks, and a wonderfully heated massage table to relax you and de-toxify your body. I frequently request her services, because she makes me feel good, she is knowledgeable about the human body, and has over 20 years of experience with massage. I think she is a unique masseuse because of her level of expertise, and her ability to utilize all of these tools to make sure your pain goes away. Drink plenty of water afterward! I will forever employ her services! Due to COVID-19 Pandemic Protocols, you will have to wear a mask, have your temp checked at the door, and go through a check-list to ensure safety, She also wears a mask when she performs massage. The environment felt very safe and clean!
