Visit Seattle, Washington

The iconic skyline, the Worlds Fair and an exciting and delicious coffee culture are just some of the many reasons to visit Seattle.

What to see on your visit to Seattle?

For spectacular city views, visit the observation deck at the Space Needle. Hopefully, the weather will be on your side as a clear day gives you views over the whole city and Mount Rainier. Take the Washington State ferry to Bainbridge Island, for just $8 per person, for another great way to view the city. Pike Place Market is full of vibrance and buzz, but can be super overwhelming at lunch-hour throughout the summer, visiting first thing can be magical or a little later in the afternoon will avoid this and give you a great chance to explore. For on-trend restaurants, stylish indie vintage shops and craft breweries visit Ballard, a quirky little neighbourhood along the waterfront!

What is the weather like in Seattle?

‘Generally rainy’ is something with which we are well acquainted with, so Seattle may not be so surprising for you. Of course, it’s not always raining here, just… most of the time. But a bit of rain never hurt anybody, right? You will find that people in Seattle LOVE the outdoors. With such beautiful parks and landscaped surrounding Seattle, sometimes a rainy day hike isn’t all that bad.
