The most frequently visited islands are the four with ferry service: Lopez, Orcas, San Juan and Shaw.
Since Seattle is the gateway city to the islands, first spend at a day or two exploring this eclectic city.

You may take your car aboard the ferry or simply walk on.
An Insider's Guide to Washington’s San Juan Islands
Either way, carry your camera onboard, too. The views are breathtaking and you might even see a whale or seal. Ferry captains usually announce when wildlife is in view. There are ferry stops at four islands: Lopez, Orcas, Shaw and San Juan. During the busiest season, from April to October, be sure to make a reservation. Day trips and overnight trips are available, with and without whale watching itineraries.
Each island has its own personality. The most-visited island is San Juan, with Friday Harbor dotted with charming restaurants and shops. About 20 square kilometers, Shaw is the smallest of the four San Juan Islands served by Washington State Ferries, making it a low-key day trip. To get a glimpse of killer whales, also known as orcas, visit the San Juans from May to October, when the salmon runs are strongest.
