#2 of 42 in Beaches in Washington State

Beach Nature / Park

View the city skyline, glimpse orcas and sea lions offshore, and play beach volleyball at Alki Beach. Rent kayaks and paddleboards, ride a bike down the paved path, and roller-skate while you take in the views of the nearby mountain ranges. Eat and drink at one of the many nearby restaurants, or pack food to eat at the picnic tables. Street parking is available nearby, but it fills quickly--consider taking the ferry from the city and then the free shuttle bus to the beach instead. Plan your visit to Alki Beach and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Seattle trip planner.

  We had heard this was a trendy place to visit and built a visit into our plan, mostly to find a place to eat, with a stroll along the beach. Parking was very difficult. We were there on a Saturday and...  more »

  1.搭watertaxi到ALKI,與目的地的公園有很遠的距離差,可從碼頭租腳踏車比較方便,不要租雙人協力不好騎 2.PARK才看得到小自由女神,但沙灘品質沒有太好 3.我們去程搭BUS,回程搭WATERTAXI,因為WATERTAXI太貴了,早上沒有交通阻塞的問題 4.下次可以玩獨木舟  more »

  1. Take watertaxi to ALKI, the destination of the public park has a very short distance difference, can rent a trip than convenient, do not rent a bad person 2.PARK to see the small Statue of Liberty, but the sand is not too good 3. We go to take BUS, return trip WATERTAXI, Because WATERTAXI is too bad, there is no traffic jam problem in the morning 4. Next time you can play canoe

  We came on a sunny day and the beach was gorgeous. There are many activities you can do here - bathing in the sun on a bench along the water, enjoying a drink in one of those nearby coffee shops, renting a bike to peddle with your companions, eating a takeout from one of those seafood restaurants, or simply strolling along the beach taking in all the scenery. Recommended!

  Alki will always have a special place in my heart. The scenery is gorgeous any time of the year. Seattle skyline is always breathtaking, and the ice cream along the beach is always awesome. I firmly believe that a trip to Seattle is not complete until you visit Alki.
