It's the best place (in our opinion) to watch the sunset over the water and behind the Olympic mountains. Usually there are pretty sailboats sailing around, too!

This park is a little drive away, about 10-15 minutes, but we love it for easy trails through the woods and a little hike to the west point light house and you can walk along a beautiful rocky beach lined with driftwood!

Pike's Place Market is famous for a reason. Fun crafts, delicious local food, the first Starbucks coffee shop, and views of the Puget sound. My favorites are walking through all the seasonal flowers, watching the fishermen throw salmon, and getting a freshly made piroshky.
