The ferry to quaint Bainbridge Island is great. Can take a car on the ferry, but it is also very walkable if you don't want to bring the car. Basically get off the ferry and follow everyone. "Downtown" is a 10 minute walk. The ferry ride is stunning if it's clear with amazing views of Seattle, Rainier, and the Olympics. Ferry is on the docks downtown and is cheap... https://www.wsdot.wa.gov/.../Schedule/ScheduleDetail.aspx... roundtrip=true http://visitbainbridge.com/

There are three national parks within 2 hours of Seattle. If you have limited time, Rainier is probably the most accessible. https://www.nps.gov/mora/index.htm https://www.nps.gov/noca/index.htm

The San Juan Islands are an absolute must. The ferry is an hour and a half away and if it’s clear out it’s absolutely stunning. Would be worth spending a night there.

Pioneer Square is a unique neighborhood in Seattle – one that’s still up and coming in many ways, and yet one that’s popular for its nightlife and galleries and tourist activities alike. This historical neighborhood has a bit of everything, from tourist hotspots like the Underground Tour, to artsy activities and galleries galore, to restaurants and nightlife, to a major viewpoint. That being said, Pioneer Square isn’t Seattle’s safest neighborhood. You’ll be fine if you use common sense safety and stick to populated areas. Skip ducking through side streets that you don’t know, especially if you’re visiting alone and aren’t familiar with the area or are out late. https://www.tripsavvy.com/best-things-to-do-in-pioneer-square-seattle-4586935

Molly Moon's is also just down the street and the ice cream is excellent with truly original flavors. There's no seating, many locals grab a scoop on their walks through the neighborood. Just place your order at the window or grab a pint or two from the Molly Moon fridge. If you like lavender - try the lavender honey ice cream. Molly Moon's mission is to make the world better, one scoop at a time as a multigenerational gathering place with sustainability and happiness at the core of all we do. The world is a big place, made smaller, we believe, by the act of sharing a sweet treat with someone you love. Our team works hard to create deliciousness by partnering with local farmers and producers — from jam-makers and beekeepers to strawberry farmers and coffee roasters — to turn the best, freshest, most creative local flavors into truly outstanding ice cream. https://www.mollymoon.com/locations/madrona

The only restarant on this list that is not within walking distance - but it's a short Uber ride to Capital Hill. Mamoom is one of ANTHONY BOURDAIN's Seattle picks. I had the best lamb I have ever eaten but there are plenty of vegetarian options. If you go for dinner, you can almost always get a seat at the bar, otherwise, you'll need reservations. There's a walk up window to grab lunch, but it's not the full menu. https://www.nadimama.com/mamnoon
