The new waterfront is really nice because there's a lot more areas to sit, there's tables, and there's a lot of things to do here. It's a nice playground for the kids as well with plenty of restaurants and shops to keep you busy. The water views are amazing and I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. Whether it's your first time or if you've been here in years past, come check out the new Seattle waterfront and I'm sure you will be happy with all the changes they have made.

Great beautiful Expansion of the Waterfront. Wonderfully creative and varied vendors in the market place from stunning water color Paintings, jewelry - Aran sweaters and of course plenty of fresh seafood and flowers !! Loved the indigenous art and history being featured. Next time we'll get to the aquarium! Marketplace can use more options for restrooms at the waterfront stroll area rather than navigating the market for one . And weirdly short stall doors -needs some upgrades ! But we LOVE Seattle!

Really nice area overlooking Elliot bay. This is where you'll find the Great wheel and you can watch the ferries leaving the terminal and cross the bay. We bought lunch at Pike market and walked to the waterfront to sit and eat and people watch. I heard it's newly remodeled. I don't know what it looked like before but this is a really nice area to sit and enjoy the day.

Love what they have done with the place. Night and day compared to pre-covid. Also - the bike path is SO NICE. If you're visiting from out of town: you can use the elevator at the aquarium to quickly get up to Pike Place Market, or the busses about half a mile south near the port that'll get you up the big hill.

Love the new waterfront. Super open, clean, and the views are gorgeous. Pier 62 is great for hanging out or catching events, and the Overlook Walk is a must for photos. Nice spot to chill after Pike Place, feels way more inviting now.
