Welcome to Salish Sea Soapworks

Hi there—welcome! We’re so glad you found us.

Salish Sea Soapworks was born right here on San Juan Island, inspired by the sea air, garden blooms, salty breezes, and the incredible people who call this place home. What started as a personal passion for crafting beautiful, skin-loving soaps using local ingredients has grown into a small-but-mighty business with one mission: to share the spirit of the islands in every bar.

Our products are made with purpose—infused with locally sourced ingredients like lavender and goat milk, crafted in small batches, and wrapped in our love for sustainability and community. Whether you’re here because you visited the islands and want to hold onto that memory, or you live here and want to gift a little piece of home, we hope our soaps and body care help you feel nourished, grounded, and connected.

This space—the blog—is where we’ll share behind-the-scenes stories, product tips, island-inspired rituals, and the occasional love note to the Salish Sea. Think of it as a quiet corner of the internet where you can slow down, breathe deep, and feel a little more rooted in the moment.

Thanks for being here. We can’t wait to grow with you.

With gratitude,

Becky Volk, founder
