It's southern California, but located in Seattle! A classic beach strip of ice cream stores, bars, eateries. Lots of people watching, and usually cars cruising as well. A tiny Statue of Liberty lives here. You can rent bikes and paddle boards, or scuba off the shore if you're feeling really ambitious. Apparently there is an octopus nursery tucked away out there!

A wonderful park for a stroll. There is a paved pathway around the lake (2.8 miles) that's filled with dogs, roller skaters, strollers, and bikes. You can rent paddle boats during the summer. There is also a Par3 golf course, sports fields, tennis courts, and walkways through the woods.
Plenty of coffee shops and restaurants located along the N/NE portion of the loop.

There are two restaurants at the West Seattle dock: Salty's (more expensive) and Marination Station (affordable Hawaiian food).
$5.75 for an adult ticket.

This conservatory is located in the same park as the "Black Hole Sun" sculpture and the Asian Art Museum. There are hundreds of interesting plants to admire.
During the winter, it's a warm escape into a little humid jungle. Trust me, it feels good to be cozy & surrounded by plants in the dark day of January/February.

This is an active lock system letting boat traffic traverse between the Puget Sound & Lake Union. It’s cool to see the system work, and there is a salmon ladder as well. There are viewing windows to see the fish swimming upstream. The grounds are pretty, and there’s a classic “salty dog” tavern at the entrance. Stop into the pub for chowder or fish + chips.

This is a great community concept. The City of Tukwila established this program as a way to encourage women to become entrepreneurs. The program is meant to support immigrants, so the food is from many different countries.
There is one commercial kitchen in back, which all of the chefs share. At the front is 5 different counters, which you can order food from. The women rotate between different days of the week, so the menus are always changing. There is a small interior dining spot, and some outside picnic tables as well.

Contrary to the name, this is an Ethiopian/Eritrean restaurant (and not a coffee shop). I've only ever ordered the mixed veggie combo platter (because it's so good!) but they do have meat options as well.
The interior dining room is usually well attended by folks longing for the comradery of their fellow east African neighbors.
Sometimes it's a challenge when calling ahead for take-out (due to a language barrier), but they'll find another staff member to take your order (if you're speaking English).
