Things To Do
Explore Fairhaven
If you love great food, boutique shopping, an amazing art scene and getting outside in a small town, you will love Bellingham’s Historic Fairhaven District. One of my favorite things about the Village is the fact that everything is local and can only be found here in Whatcom County, making it the perfect day trip from Seattle. Paws for a Beer (a dog centric bar) is one of Frank's favorite bars and is located in Fairhaven, address is attached in this Recommendation.
Check Out Downtown Bellingham's Art Distric
There is so much to do in Bellingham’s downtown arts district! Start in the center at the Whatcom Museum with their latest exhibit , “Seeds of Culture: The Portraits and Stories of Native American Women,” by Matika Wilbur, a photographer from the Tulalip and Swinomish Tribes. After, head down Bay Street to the Spark Museum of Electrical Invention, one of Whatcom County’s most popular indoor attractions. Address linked in this Recommendation.
Deception Pass State Park
Deception Pass bridge is part of the route you would take to get from Bellingham to get to Rachel and Frank's home of Oak Harbor on Whidbey Island. The views are beautiful and we would recommend stopping by Train Wreck Bar & Grill or Bastion Brewery on your way!
Whatcom Falls Park
Best known for its namesake waterfall, the park’s main attraction could easily be checked off your Bellingham bucket list in as little as 15 minutes. But there’s so much more to discover beyond the falls. Spend an hour or two wandering Whatcom Falls Park’s 241 acres, and you’ll find everything from miles of serene, forested trails to a 100-year-old railroad trestle standing silently over Whatcom Creek. Please note that only the trails at Whatcom Falls are open. Playgrounds, public bathrooms and the dirt bike area are closed during this time.
