Things To Do

Puget Sound Express

Great high speed whale watching trip! Pricey, but worth it. We all cried.

Matthews Winery

Our favorite winery in Woodinville. Smaller with great snacks and outdoor seating!

McMenamins Anderson School

Four great restaurants to choose from, lush outdoor courtyard seating, and usually live music! (There is also a giant very warm indoor pool by the Tiki bar.)

Pike Place Market

Seattle Aquarium

They just added a whole new wing on ocean conservation!

Seattle Art Museum

Ryan's happy place. Check out the giant Rothko!

Juanita Beach Park

Great for a walk, playground, sandy beach and some Lake Washington Swimming!

Kirkland

Great little downtown and beach front! Rent electric boats or paddle boards here!

Snoqualmie Falls

Spectacular waterfall without the hike! Stop in the Salish Lodge for a drink or lunch.

Captain Whidbey

This is one of our favorite places! Off the beaten path on Whidbey Island, consider extending your trip to explore the sweet slow towns of Langley and Coupeville while you relax at this historic log cabin inn on the water!

Leavenworth

Google it. Little Bavaria in the Washington Mountains. Great beer, great brats, great hikes. Check on wildfires and smoke before you go!
