Centennial Park is essentially the northern extension of Myrtle Edwards Park, and they blend right into each other. This section feels a bit more rugged and less polished, with the huge grain terminal at one end serving as a dramatic industrial backdrop. The views of the water and mountains are just as good, and it's often much quieter and less crowded than the stretch closer to downtown. It's a great spot for a peaceful walk with a unique mix of nature and industry.

Absolutely lovely park for a walk by the water with an epic view of Rainier on one side and mountains on the other side. This has trails that are dog and bike friendly. There are benches along the trail to sit and soak the beauty of the surrondings. There is a beach on the trail if you would like to get into water. Probably a nice place to swim as well. It's a great sunset spot. One of the best places for an evening stroll to watch a sunset.

Short but very scenic park by the water front with some iconic views over bay especially sunset or sunrise. It’s ideal for a walk , jog or bike ride, single or couple or with family or friends. For most part it has separate walk/run from biking paths. Just right in the beginning there is small rose garden, a few tree sculptures along the way. There is a tiny beach area and a few benches you can sit and relax enjoying the views. Overall entire park is not even a mile long but is nice and refreshing oasis in the city.

One of the clean and best parks in the city by Elliott Bay. This waterfront park is a true gem, offering breathtaking views that elevate the outdoor experience. The park's accessibility ♿️for everyone, including well-maintained pathways and ramps, makes it a welcoming destination for all. The inclusion of a dedicated biking lane enhances the recreational options, providing a scenic route for cyclists and scooterists. The water views of the bay and Mt.Rainier views adds an extra layer of tranquility, creating a serene atmosphere away from the bustle of the city. The expansive green spaces offer a perfect setting for picnics, leisurely strolls, or simply enjoying the picturesque surroundings. There’s a small rose garden too exhibiting multiple varieties of blooms. Even though the park can get busy during peak times, the well-planned layout ensures that it doesn't feel overcrowded. I go here solo, with friends and family all the time and never felt too crowded. Overall, this waterfront park stands out as a fantastic spot for us, seamlessly blending accessibility, stunning views, and outdoor activities. Must recommend for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful escape by the water.

A great place to enjoy, relax, a long walk, and for cycling, running, playing, jogging and others. You can have a spectacular view of the Elliott Bay waterfront, the cruises, container ships, yatch, boat and the beach. One of the perfect spots to have picnic . One of the best place to witness sunset. A lot of benches here and there to sit , relax, and enjoy. There's a beautiful small rose garden extended beyond the park. it is connected to the long Elliott Bay trail that extends far beyond . On the way of the trails, there are various artifacts to see, then there's a Salmon Net area. You can sometimes get to see the terminal loading the grains to the ship or cruise Ship docked.
