Seattle Travel Tips

  • Opt for a harbor cruise or a sunset sail.  Private charters are also available.
  • Discover American music's roots at the Experience Music Project.
  • Consider a ski trip in winter. Seattle is all about the surrounding mountains, and the nearby ski areas of Snoqualmie Pass, Stephens Pass, and Crystal Mountain draw regional snowboarders and skiers.
  • Saltwater-fishing opportunities exist year-round in Seattle, though during certain times of year salmon must be released, usually around May and June. During those times, fish for lingcod, cabezon, and flounder.

    Anonymous user answered:
    We drove from Sparland IL (20 miles north of Peoria) to Lakewood, WA (20 miles south of Seattle) in 3.5 days. We traveled via I-90 and did very little sightseeing along the way as I had driven this route before. You can push it a bit more each day and do it in 3 days. We travel with a dog so have to stop more. About 1900 miles each way. Prepare for delays and detours in mountains due to construction and rock slides -- they happen.

    I would recommend staying in downtown Seattle. It has lots of good shopping, food, and there is a cool music museum. I would recommend a car.

    Take a trip on a Washington State ferry! The view is spectacular and the price is very reasonable. On Bainbridge Island you can take a tour with Kitsap Tours (they meet you at the ferry terminal).. Choose between a tour of the island, a tour of the beautiful Bloedel Reserve or a full day touring several unique little communties west of Seattle. www.KitsapTours.com
