Access Points and Destinations - Sunday, June 4, 2023
Where NWOC lives is a private marina, not public property. Our landlord, Boatworld Marina, is demanding less traffic on their dock, so if you are not renting a boat/board from us, we have to institute a $7.00 per craft fee to launch from our location. A Season launch pass costs $50. Checkin at the office and pay upon arrival. If you are arriving with friends who are renting from us, the fee will be waived for up to 2 companions with their own craft. Craft must be inflated or assembled upstairs so as not to impede our business on the dock. Other free access points are detailed below.

Launches near San Juan Islands Ferry Docks
