Things to do in Friday Harbor

Friday Harbor is the only incorporated town on San Juan Island and the commercial hub of the San Juan Islands, an archipelago in the far northwest corner of Washington. Its ferry landing and marina open onto a walkable town of restaurants, galleries, inns and whale-watching outfitters, and the island beyond is a mix of farms, forests, rocky shoreline and second homes. The economy runs on tourism, real estate, construction and marine services, along with the University of Washington’s Friday Harbor Laboratories, a respected marine science station.
