What to Wear on the Water

We recommend that all paddlers wear wicking/quick-drying clothes (check the labels for synthetic materials such as polypropylene, spandex and nylon)

  • Shorts, or pants that can easily roll up to the knee
  • Short or long sleeved shirt
  • Fleece top (should be a good fit)
  • Lightweight windbreaker/rain jacket
  • Sandals (that strap on!) or shoes that WILL GET WET
  • Sun hat/visor, chapstick, sunscreen, and a compact waterproof digital camera are also recommended!

Bikes are a great way to explore Lopez Island! Bus and taxi services are basically non-existent on the Island, but renting a bike will allow you to quickly travel and explore the many sights of Lopez. It is relatively flat with rolling hills (and a few more challenging ones!) and most of the island can be explored in a weekend. The locals are accustomed to bike traffic – and have provided pullouts and signage to keep traffic flowing smoothly.

Be sure to pick up a Lopez Map (available at the ferry landing, at our rental booth, and from the Chamber of Commerce in the Village) for lots of helpful sightseeing info. You can also view/download the Map from the Lopez Island Chamber of Commerce website. Traveling by bike also allows you to avoid lengthy wait times in the ferry lines. Walk-on/bike passengers can arrive 15-20 minutes before the boat loads, while visitors with vehicles are cautioned to arrive at least 60 minutes early, and still risk not getting on!

Where to Find Us

To rent equipment from this location, please visit our Rental Shed on the beach at Spencer Spit State Park, Lopez Island. We are located at the base of the main trail, and adjacent to the boat load/unload area. Follow our signs to the beach!
