Itinerary
1. Begin your cruise from Seattle’s historic and lively central waterfront! As you cruise by various piers and landmarks, you’ll see popular sights like the Space Needle, Great Wheel, Overlook Park, etc.
2. See the Seattle Great Wheel in its entirety as you cruise by Pier 57! Another popular location for both water and city views. This attraction opened in 2012, doubling as a fun ride and a great place for expansive views.
3. See one of Seattle’s many green spaces, Myrtle Edwards Park. With a 1.25 mile biking and pedestrian path along Elliott Bay, this small but mighty park holds fantastic views of both the water and city. This park is closely connected to downtown Seattle and the neighborhood of Magnolia.
4. The Summer Views Cruise will go by the iconic landmark, the Space Needle. You’ll be able to take photos from our unobstructed view of the famous Space Needle, while also snapping the landmark itself in the skyline as a whole.
5. Terminal 91 is one of Seattle’s main cruise terminals. When in port, see one of many gigantic passenger cruise ships. While one tour during cruise season, learn about Seattle’s longstanding ties to Alaska’s inside passage.
6. Surrounding Elliott Bay and the Puget Sound is the Olympic Mountain Range. Visible across the water from Seattle, you’ll enjoy the beauty of its rugged terrain and on a clear day see it’s snow capped peaks. Get both city and nature views!
7. Enjoy sweeping views of this large inland estuary, that lies between the Olympic Peninsula and Seattle metropolitan area. Approximately 95 miles long, see views of popular mountain ranges like the Olympics. If you’re lucky, you might even get a glimpse of some wildlife!
8. Weather permitting, catch a glimpse of the 14,410 ft tall volcano that sits just 60 miles southeast of Seattle. Being one of Seattle’s most iconic natural landmarks, Mount Rainier or also commonly known as Mount Tahoma, is a gem of a view. It is the highest point in the Cascade Range.
9. View West Seattle and the Alki Point Lighthouse from the water. The lighthouse is a fully functioning and automated aid-to-navigation on an active US Coast Guard site and holds rich history of Seattle from the 1800’s.
10. Get up close views of the large container ships as they are loaded and unloaded into the Port of Seattle. Also known as Harbor Island, this is the largest man-made island in the United States. Built in 1909, this area is used for both commercial and industrial activities.
