Where to stay
Overview
The Edgewater, in Elliott Bay, is the ultimate place to rest after a day on the water. The Beatles were snapped there in 1964, fishing out of their window.
Or try the Inn at the Market, located inside Pike Place, Seattle’s original farmers’ market. “Watching the fishmongers toss salmon in the world-famous fish market is always a thrill,” says Captain Kim. “With a new waterfront park, you can explore the boardwalk and enjoy views of the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains.”
South Lake Union is another waterside neighborhood to explore. Check out its houseboats—made famous in the 1993 movie Sleepless in Seattle—or you can rent the world’s original hot tub boats.

Food & drink
Overview
“There are so many incredible dining options,” says Captain Kim. “For casual dining, check out Seattle Fish Guys for daily fresh made poke, hearty plate lunches, smoked salmon, and fresh crab. The nigiri sushi and sashimi prepared at Sushi Kappo Tamura by the James Beard-nominated sushi chef Taichi Kitamura, is fresh and delicious. Or push the boat out with a window table at Palisade in Magnolia. You can’t go wrong.”
Find the local fishing crowd at Ray’s Boathouse, an iconic fixture since the 1940s. “I’ll often grab a pint at the bar and watch the sunset. It’s a great local hangout.”

What to do
Overview
“Be sure to hop on the scenic 35-minute ferry to Bainbridge Island. Tour the shops, museum and art galleries,” suggests Captain Kim. “The journey back, with the Cascade Mountains against the skyline, is spectacular.
“Seattle Aquarium is great and at Discovery Park you can explore the trails and lighthouse. Or drive out to the hikes of Mount Rainier National Park, Denny Creek, or Rattlesnake Lake and Ledge.”
