Traveling to Seattle WA and San Juan Islands in May. Any suggestions on sites to see and things to do? |
This trip is a romantic get-away for hubby and me. What should we do in Seattle for two days? We like ethnic cuisine, seafood, culture, history and other points of interest. We will take an overnight trip to the San Juan islands. We'd like to stay at a Bed and Breakfast (1 nite and two days) and do something unique to the place. I have read about sea kayaking to site whales and bicycle tours. I have visited web sites. I'd like to hear from locals or people who travel and know of something really cool to check out, or if these trips advertised on the web are worth it. We are on a budget and would like to know about any discounts. Pike Place Market is a great place to go there. There are many different shops that you can go to, including the Flying Fish (a seafood store where you order and they throw the fish around, hence the name). The Space Needle, obviously, is a place that you should go to, also. There is a restaurant in the top of the Space Needle that slowly revolves to give you a great view of the city and Mount Rainier. Speaking of which, that's another great place to go. It is really beautiful once you get to the visitor's center. From there, you can take several different hikes around the mountain to get even better views. There are many small islands around Puget Sound and Seattle where you can go to to sightsee. You can probably also rent a boat to take out on the water. Once you get to the San Juan Islands, you should go to Orcas Island. My parents have a friend that lives on Orcas, and I have been there a couple of times. It is a beautiful place, and I'm running out of advice. Hope I made things easier. Have a great trip! You are going to have so much fun!! Don't plan too much. Once you get to Seattle, downtown will reveal itself. Pikes Street Market, the International District, the Space Needle, the Experience Music Project...the list is incredible. You will be taking the ferry to the San Juan Islands. I enjoy the trip. Friday Harbor is a great place to kick back. Enjoy the beaches....fly a kite. |
