Springtime weather can be the most changeable of all the seasons in the Islands. Daytime temperatures shift from the chill of late February to a balmy March (53 degrees Fahrenheit on average), into the gorgeous days of April (57 degrees) and May (63 degrees). Showers are common, but with half the precipitation of the Seattle area, the San Juans experience fewer rainy days. As the locals say, "dress in layers" for any outing, with a sweater, light jacket, scarf and hat at the ready.

Farm-fresh food starts the season

Springtime brings fresh goat cheese, delicate baby greens, and fresh seafood. You can pick up spring's treasures at the farmers markets that start up in March on San Juan Island, and May on Lopez and Orcas Islands. Restaurants on the islands transform the freshest early harvest into culinary art. Check out our dining listings to find the perfect dining experience.

Springtime Getaway

Find a waterside hotel, bed & breakfast inn, historic resort or cozy cabin for a girlfriends' getaway, romantic weekend away or spring break adventure.

8 Things to do this Spring

Springtime is a great time to get away to quiet beaches and fresh air, delicious local food, and stunning art. From whale watching to biking, kayaking to gallery browsing, there are plenty of fun things to do on Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan Islands before summer arrives.

Take the San Juan Islands Pledge
