Charlie Porter's Back in Town

The Charlie Porter Quintet is bringing world-class jazz to Orcas Island this summer, and honestly, that's the kind of Saturday night energy we live for. Before the music starts, hit the farmers market (10am) or catch the Summer Splash Regatta (11am), then settle in for golden hour at 8:12pm with a perfect 67-degree evening ahead. If you're feeling the cleanup bug first, the beach crew launches at 11am—good karma before good tunes.
