Seattle Waterfront photo credit Wondercamp Explore The waterfront is livelier than ever. Take it all in from the redeveloped Waterfront Park and the Seattle Great Wheel , which extends nearly 40 feet beyond the pier out over Elliott Bay. Next door, Sasquatch Mountain is a new immersive and family-friendly virtual reality ride that takes you on an thrilling hunt in search of the legendary Big Foot. Visit the Seattle Aquarium and its stunning Ocean Pavilion to see sharks, sea otters, and stingrays. Eat and Drink Start you day with a visit to 70 & Sunny Coffee Co. , at the entrance of Myrtle Edwards Park , or Aroom near the ferry terminal. Along the Pike Street Hillclimb, Pike St. Coffee is a cheerful stop for a lavender latte, while Get Baked Seattle makes creatively named cookies—like Sir Twix-a-Lot and You’re Killing Me Smalls—packed with whey protein, and Zig Zag Cafe is a classic on the Seattle cocktail bar scene. For dinner with a view, Anthony’s Pier 66 and AQUA by El Gaucho are inviting options. Shop Remember your visit with a sweatshirt or coaster from Simply Seattle at Pier 54. For upscale men’s and women’s clothing, and personalized styling to go with it, check out The Finerie . The quirkiest gifts can be found at Ugly Baby —stop by if you’re in the market for waterproof shower art or stationery with sassy sayings. Find the perfect plant at Kubode , known for kokedamas, a type of Japanese bonsai. There’s a helpful sign out front for travelers: “Yes, you can bring plants on a plane.” Explore more Seattle neighborhoods Originally written for Visit Seattle's Official Visitors' Guide Subscribe to the Seattle Localist Seattle’s best every month in your inbox Instagram This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
