The 20 Things To Do In Seattle

The 29+ Top Things To Do In Seattle

by Shira Weitz - updated September 4, 2020

Seattle is truly one of the most fun cities in the United States, and it has a little something for everyone. The flourishing greenery that surrounds the city gives it the nickname, “The Emerald City,” and it’s just as stunning as it sounds.

You can get a taste of quintessential seaside life in the Pacific Northwest or enjoy a remote lake on the same day that you stroll around the urban city fueled with top-notch coffee shops.

Between its (literal) underground scene, its wonderful markets, mouthwatering restaurants and lively nightlife (I could go on…) knowing about these fun things, it’s tougher to know where to begin with planning your trip. 

So, I sorted through my own experiences, and asked my trusted local friends for their favorite activities or best things to do in Seattle to indulge in.

1. Follow The… Trail of Trails

Follow The Trail of Trails
Join the Bicyclist on the Burke Gilman trail, Seattle Washington

If you’re like me and love getting to know a city by strolling through it, or if you just like to keep your glutes in shape when you travel, OR if you like to feel the breeze in your hair while you whiz by beautiful scenery on your bicycle, then you must spend some time on Burke Gilman Trail, Seattle.

The nearly 20-mile trail winds past Lake Washington Ship Canals, the Shammamish River Trail, Marymoor Park and many more jaw-droppers, making it the trail that keeps on… trailing.

Hop on at Golden Gardens Park, and definitely stop to smell the flowers while you’re there.

The Burke Gilman Trail is one of Seattle’s first rail-trails in the country, meaning it doubles as a commuters dream, helping people all over Seattle get to where they need to go.

2. Swim In A Giant Lake

Swim In A Giant Lake
Visit and be ready for fun activities for families with kids of all ages.

Summer is the perfect time to dive in the waters of the second largest park in Seattle, Magnuson Park.

The small pebble beaches separate the grassy fields from the lake’s edge and it’s the perfect place to kick back and soak in the fresh air.

The lake is one of the more popular places for University students to get their feet wet during the summer, and a little known secret is that the locals consider it a “clothing optional” destination.

3. Watch Boats at Ballard Locks

Watch Boats at Ballard Locks
Watch the Ballard Boat locks move boats from the ocean side of Puget Sound into the fresh water of Lake Washington.

Ballard Locks is one of the most frequented tourist attractions in Seattle, and for good reason.

Ballard Locks is a Historical Civil Engineering Landmark that successfully maintains Lake Washington’s water levels, keeping the freshwater lakes separate from the salt-water ocean, and transports boats from one body of water to the next.

The stunning scenery and the action on the water will put you in “chill” mode so you can lazily watch the boats go by.

You can also climb down the Fish Ladder to try and catch sight of Salmon spawning in their natural habitat during season.

4. Day Trip to A Stunning Tulip Festival

Day Trip to A Stunning Tulip Festival
Enjoy and get relaxed with the colors of tulip rows in the Skagit Valley.

Only nature can decide which tulips will sprout and when exactly, but if you happen to be traveling during springtime, you simply must seek them out at the Tulip Festival in Skagit Valley.

Not only are the millions of tulips that burst into bloom enough to take your breath away, but the surrounding terrain includes mountains, lakes, islands, and more; all available to marvel at while you explore the diverse agricultural community of Skagit.

Check out their upcoming events. You won’t regret taking this trip.

Check Out Awesome Cherry Blossoms
Enjoying the spectacle of the cherry trees in the garden.

It might be a gamble as to when the Cherry Trees at the University of Washington will be in full bloom (hey, you can’t control mother nature) but the sight is so stunning that it’s well worth taking the chance.

Take a stroll through the Quad at the 87-year-old cherry trees as they begin to bloom in the springtime.

Check out the predictions of when they will bloom for your upcoming trip, or just take a stroll through the grounds of the university because, hey, they’re pretty pretty too.

6. Day Trip to Olympic National Park

Day Trip to Olympic National Park
Witness the enchanting Sol Duc Falls in Olympic National Park.

The air doesn’t get much fresher than at a (nearly) million-acre National Park! Once you reach your destination, there is no shortage of ways to enjoy the diverse and expansive scenery.

There are multiple ecosystems that work together to create the stunning Olympic National Park, including cliffside shorelines, snow capped mountains, and lusciously green forests, to start.

You can camp out, backpack through, paddleboard around, catch a fish… the possibilities are nearly endless!

You can cater your trip to indulge in activities that are most meaningful to you, and then have no fear, because no matter your choice, the nature that surrounds you will melt your heart, leaving you in awe of the connectedness you feel to the earth.

7. See Where The Settlers Settled In Seattle

See Where The Settlers Settled In Seattle
Witness the historical and Romanesque architecture of the Pioneer Square.

Among the city streets is Pioneer Square, and yes, the adorable name matches its historical, Romanesque architecture quite nicely.

Built in the 1800’s, the neighborhood where Seattle was founded is now home to art galleries, cafes, and trendy shops, restaurants and bars.

You can start your day off with a coffee at Cherry Street Coffee House, and end your day at the Box House Saloon.

In between, check out the murals painted around the hood, get your gallery on at ’57 Biscayne or check out a waterfall park right in the center of the square.

That’s right, folks, a 22ft waterfall nestled in the city center.

Don’t forget to add on your list to visit Pioneer Square art galleries First Thursday and other days.

Many galleries are featuring all kinds of art within one square mile.

Pioneer Square has provided a sanctuary for Seattle’s artistic community since the early 1960s.

And now, Pioneer Square is the center of Seattle’s art scene. 

If you have more time left in your visit why not take a self-guided walking tour of the Trail to Treasure!

8. Head To The Market… Pike Place Market

Head To The Market… Pike Place Market
Explore one of the oldest continuously operated public markets in the United states.

Since 1907 in the Seattle institution, Pike Place Market has been the city’s first and largest farmers market in Seattle Washington.

Pike Place Market is a lively center where locals and tourists head to satisfy their food scene for delicious bites, groceries, and of course, colorful flowers.

Pike Place is located on the iconic Seattle waterfront, open 363 days a year, and surrounds a nine-acre Market Historic District overlooking Elliott Bay. 

On any given day, the market is buzzing with energy as people indulge in some of the yummiest restaurants in the city, like Athenian Seafood Restaurant, which overlooks the Ferris wheel on the water, or Bocco Café, which boasts modern Pacific Northwest cuisine.

Another favorite stop is Rachel’s Ginger Beer, where the drinks are even more delicious than they sound (and they sound delicious).

If you want to take the party home with you, the fish place market has a beautiful array of local findings.

In fact, even if you’re not ready to prepare your own dinner, just the sight of the bustling booths is enough to satisfy.

Speaking of stimulating visuals, Pike Place Market Flowers offers a variety of brightly colored bouquets that will leave you feeling a little sunnier.

The arrangements are so gorgeous; it’ll be hard to extricate yourself without purchasing a few bundles… even if it’s for your Airbnb or hotel room.

From the opening of the market in 1907 to the present day, Pike Place Market has been a central gathering point and one of the best things to visit for everyone from Seattle locals to worldwide travelers. 

Located in a post alley right around the corner from Pike Place Market, the hidden gem dubbed as the Seattle Gum Wall is one of the city’s kookiest attractions.

It started in the ’90s, and it’s taken off in recent years thanks to the power of social media.

People visit here to get Instagramable pictures in front of the Gum Wall that is brightly-colored and to experience sticking their chewed gum to the display.

9. Take An Underground Tour

Take An Underground Tour
Discover the historic underground passageways of Seattle’s original neighborhood.

Let’s face it, Seattle is a beautiful city but when it rains it pours, as they say.

Luckily, you don’t have to let a rainy day keep you inside… you just have to let it take you underground!

Beneath The Streets is unlike any other tour you’ve ever been on.

The guided adventure takes you below the city, through the historical neighborhoods from an interesting POV.

The tour guides are local and raw, decidedly skipping on the cheesy scripts in favor of presenting the depth of the city more authentically, as they dive into edgier topics of conversation including prostitution, gambling, drinking and the likes.

12. Have Your Theater, and Eat There Too

Have Your Theater, and Eat There Too
Witness the world-class entertainment in Seattle.

Triple Door is an eccentric theater and restaurant boasts a delicious menu of fresh Pacific Northwestern food… but the fun doesn’t stop there.

The former 1920’s Vaudeville theater, turned cinema, turned burlesque house, eventually closed it’s doors until 1999 when it was bought and renovated by Anne and Rick Yoder, and was made into an intimate music and theater dinner hall.

The place has a cool, urban feel and hosts world-renowned performers on a nightly basis.

The theater is a bit under the radar, so even though the scene is robust, you’ll be mingling among the locals.

13. See (And Hear) Art

See (And Hear) Art
Be amazed with A Sound Garden musical art installation on the NOAA Art Walk in Seattle.

A Sound Garden sits on the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) grounds and is part sculpture, part musical instrument built by Douglas R. Hollis.

The tall structures are topped with Organ-like devices that create a beautiful (albeit, a bit eerie) musical effect that washes over all who come to marvel.

It’s a unique way to entrench yourself in the unique Seattle art.

Visit Cat Café

That’s right, folks. Seattle has, not just a single cat café, but an entire scene of cat cafes!

The most popular is Seattle Meowtropolitan, where you can drink, cuddle and pet, or indulge in some cat yoga!

All of the cats are adoptable so if you really don’t want the fun to end, you can bring the cuddles home with you.

15. Have A Drink In The Most Infamous Bar In Seattle

Have A Drink In The Most Infamous Bar In Seattle
Feel the old-Seattle vibe of the most infamous bar.

Blue Moon Tavern is an old timey bar that has dubbed itself the “most infamous bar” in Seattle, probably due to its eccentric history of transitioning from speakeasy to biker bar to hipster bar, to now just wanting everyone to feel some love.

And the local breweries and wineries certainly feel love here, as their extensive booze selection (which now prevents it from legally being considered a “tavern”) is comprised of Seattle’s finest producers.

16. Go Up, Up, Up In The Space Needle

Go Up, Up, Up In The Space Needle
Experience entirely new levels of thrills in Seattle Space Needle.

The Space Needle was constructed as part of the World Fair in 1962 to represent America’s innovative space initiative; hence it’s flying saucer shape.

One of the best things to see in Queen Anne, Seattle.

The symbolic structure remains appropriate for its location in Seattle, as it continues to represent the forward thinking and progressive ways of Washington.

It has two amazing observation deck, the world’s only revolving glass floor, and open-air glass benches.

Renovations in 2018 have greatly increased the amount of excitement around the Space Needle, as it now has multiple levels to enjoy the only 360 degree view of Seattle.

One of those levels is outside, where you can look through the glass walls while you feel the breeze on your face.

It also installed a glass floor so you can look straight down and see the Seattle skyline beneath your feet as you try not to get vertigo.

17. Go On A Free Boat Ride

Go On A Free Boat Ride
Experience the history that’s written in boats.

One way to get out on the water at Lake Union is to venture to the Center for Wooden Boats.

Perhaps one of my favorite adventures in Seattle is taking a boat ride here. 

If you have a tendency to be drawn towards the water at Lake Union, then I suggest you check out the free (that’s right, free) boat rides that have been a tradition there for more than 25 years.

While you wait to board your “ship” (okay, it’s more like a schooner, steamboat, electric boat or yacht) you can take a gander at their fleet, check out a current exhibit, or maybe head to one of their calendar events.

With a truly dedicated staff whose number one goal is to connect you to all things maritime, each activity at the Center For Wooden Boats comes with learning experience on the side.

18. Drink Local Brews

Drink Local Brews
Take a sip of the local cold brews with a native american in Seattle.

In addition to cold brews of the caffeinated kind, Seattle is home to many cold brews of the boozy kind.

There’s no shortage of breweries delivering next-level cold ones, but a few stand out among the rest.

Take, for example, Stoup Brewing, which has a variety of amazing beers, but I highly recommend a sour Berliner Weisse complete with a flavored syrup shot for a truly standout experience.

If you prefer a cozy patio to sip your bevvy, then head to Rooftop Brewery where you can try out their best sellers, like the Makeda Coffee Porter.

Not so keen on beer, beer, and more beer?

Capitol Cider has over 200 (you guessed it) ciders to choose from, and their incredibly yummy bites along with live music and livelier atmosphere makes it an experience you will not forget.

Day Trip To Whidbey and Camano Island
Challenge yourself or treat yourself with all the things to do on Whidbey and Camano Islands.

There, you’ll find a number of world’s fair art shops to peruse, scrumptious bites to eat and drinkable wines to compliment them, and an endless amount of parks and beaches to marvel at, as you unwind and truly soak in the lush surroundings of life in the Pacific Northwest.

Settled right on the water and within Lake Union Park, the Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI) is one of Seattle’s top museums. History buffs should check out the Nordic Heritage Museum, or the Museum of History and Industry.

  1. There’s so many different types of things to do on this list, I love it! I would absolutely LOVE to do the barista training. I’m coffee obsessed, and I’ve honestly never seen an experience like this offered before. I’d love to wow my dinner guests with new barista skills!

  2. I can’t believe I have never been to Seattle. It sounds like my kind of city with a mix of great food and urban sights, but surrounded by nature. I’m like you and love getting to know a city by walking. I would love the city trail and would definitely take advantage of the free boat ride.

    1. Walking or taking slow bike tours is always the best way to get in-depth information about a city. Hopefully, you can visit Seattle soon.

  3. We have been to Seattle several times. But your post has shown me we still have lots to see on future visits. I actually had no idea there were locks in Seattle! Or that there were tulip farms and cherry blossoms to see in season. We are definitely coffee geeks so will definitely plan for barista training on our next visit. Love that there are some good day trips too. A great list for our next visit.

  4. I definitely need to revisit Seattle during the Tulip Festival and Cherry Blossoms, which both look absolutely stunning! I didn’t know it was the second largest wine producing region in the country! Plus I would love the ability to support Women Winemakers and learn more about these pioneers!

    1. The tulip festival is a gorgeous time to be there! My favorite. I also didn’t know about the wine until I visited, so I didn’t plan enough time to do the tour I wanted to.

  5. I’m from Vancouver and drive down to Seattle lots. I loved seeing the cherry blossoms at UW and the Skagit Valley tulips. Mount Rainier is also just beautiful during wildflower season. Haven’t done everything on this list though and will have to check out A Sound Garden next time for sure!

  6. I would love to visit Seattle as it has so many things to do. Musical garden looks very interesting as to see and (hear) art must be really unique thing to do here. Pike place market is really very colorful and I would surely visit this oldest still running market.

  7. Thats like an endless list. Trails sound fun. I would love to start with the Tulip festival. The Cherry Blossoms look amazing and Olympic National park looks super inviting. Mount Rainier looks picturesque and I would love to check out the markets, See and hear Art, Underground tour and the local cafes.

  8. I like Seattle very much, one of my favorite cities. It offers a variety of unique attractions and is so close to fabulous nature, Mount Rainier and Olimpic National Parks. It is a perfect idea to go there for a day trip from Seattle. I haven’t yet been to Pacific Science Center and Wing Luke Museum. Seems interesting.

  9. You just sold Seattle to me. I love each and every one of these activities. Cherry blossoms and tulip fields – yes please. Those lakes look perfect for a lazy day out. Sign me up for that underground tour for sure. And yes, thanks for that museum fix.

    1. I’m so glad you enjoyed this list! Let me know if you end up going when it is safer. I’d love to know about your adventures.
