Ready to dip your toes into an overnight camping adventure? Hope Island Adventure is a great trip for first-timers! We’ll spend our first day on-site in Olympia practicing kayak skills and safety and learning Leave No Trace principles, camping and packing skills, and developing the route and meal plan for our adventure. Then, for 3 days and 2 nights we’ll embark on a kayak adventure to Hope Island Marine State Park, one of the South Sound’s best marine campgrounds. We will explore the intertidal ecosystems and identify organisms of the island and surrounding inlets. This shorter trip is perfect for our younger participants who want a taste of sea kayaking before joining our San Juan Island trip. Previous kayaking experience is not required. Campers will be provided a required gear list at least one week prior to the trip; we are able to loan most gear to participants for the trip upon request. NOTE: This camp runs Monday, July 1st to Thursday, July 4th
