I have never seen paddle boards so gigantic. I paid $29 (+ tax) for 1 hour on a single paddle board.

He gave us a quick lesson and set us up with the paddles and off we go. The kids went off without any problem, I had to kneel for a few mins before I can stand up. As long as you are paddling, it is not hard to stand up. You can see the beautiful skyline and lovely area around the Juanita reserve area. The water was clean and clear. We had so much fun! It was a wonderful way to enjoy the last bit of summer. We will be back next year.

Thank you for getting me on the water today.

This last time I had him refinish the gel coat on my little fiberglass RV that was poorly oxidized and he got it to pop and shine again without having to do a full blown more expensive wet sand. He's clearly been doing this for a while knows what he's doing and has a great way of communicating what he's gonna do and doesn't try to nickel and dime you along the way. This time I also had him detail my two cars too and wow they look like new inside and out. So convenient to have them come to my home too!

Our old slide was hallow and plastic, and after 11 years of heavy use, could no longer be repaired. We couldn't order a replacement slide because the original manufacturer had gone out of business, and we needed an exact replacement for it to fit into the existing supports built into our pool. Around the Sound used our old plastic slide to create a mold and fabricate a brand new fiberglass slide. The new slide is beautiful and after about 8 months of heavy use, still looks great. It is far better than our original slide. Thank you!

Addie gave us tons of educational info that was cool and interesting. Although we didn't sea orcas breaching over our kayaks like we'd dreamed of, we did see plant life, fish, crab, seals on rocks, and "Ellie Mae" the female elephant seal on shore. 1.5 tour was the perfect amount of time for our day. We even got to taste bull keep leaves- tasty but also very salty lol! Thanks for a great tour Addie!!

This was the first experience that my wife and I have had whale watching. We decided to arrange a…read moretrip with Western Prince and stay on San Juan Island for a couple of nights in conjunction with it. Our guide was Allison on the boat piloted by Captain Ivan. They offered gear for the trip, including weather bibs, jacket, gloves and knitted caps, which were definitely needed for the trip. Allison provided excellent information on the wildlife in the area, of which we saw (and heard in many cases) sea lions, a sea otter, a blue heron, bald eagle, and of course, whales. Captain Ivan provided a great deal of information to our tour also, describing the interface with other tours in the area, such as how they communicate sightings and limiting time in the area in concern for the wildlife. Several aspects of the experience stood out to me: -Everyone was very welcoming, making sure everyone was prepared for the trip (gear, preparation for limited restroom access, safety, etc.) -The boat is an open design, with nearly 360-degree views, with the seating being bench style seats for very comfortable for the approximate 3-hour tour. Viewing other tour boats in the area, I was glad we chose Western Prince if only for the boat environment/atmosphere alone. -The size of the tour was approximately 20 people, which made the tour more personal. -Captain Ivan demonstrated his experience with tracking the behavior of the pod that had been sighted, with the final surfacing of the family (Orcas) approximately 75 feet from the bow on the port side of the boat, which he had only minutes prior had killed the engine expecting them to show, which they did. He didn't "chase" the whales and location, he just acted on his knowledge of their behavior to position the tour accordingly. Also, a lone sea otter had been spotted in the area recently, and as we headed back to port, he recognized him playing near a buoy, and we slowed down to watch him for a little bit. It was very impressive. -Allison demonstrated her knowledge and experience describing the behavior and environment of the wildlife. Her longevity with the company demonstrated her commitment to share and inform others of this amazing area of the world. I really can't say enough good things about the experience.
