Recommendations

Plan on spending the day. Spend time walking around the waterfront; eating at one of the restaurants, people watching, picnicking at one of the parks, going on a boat ride, and/ or visiting the Seattle Aquarium. Money saving tip: take the Washington State Ferry to Bainbridge or Bremerton instead of one of the commercial boat rides! Time Saving Tip: Combine the waterfront with Pike Place Market. You can easily access Pike Place Market from the Waterfront using the stairs or elevator located in the westside parking lot for the Market (underneath the viaduct). The cost of parking and traffic can be cumbersome. Take a bus if possible.
