Itinerary

Arrive in Seattle and, depending on your arrival time, take in some of the city’s iconic sights. You could also unwind with a visit to one of the many craft breweries in Fremont or enjoy a rooftop bar at sunset for some beautiful views of the city.

Start your day early at Pike Place Market, where you can stroll through the bustling stalls and perhaps join a walking food tour to sample local treats while learning about the market's rich history. Afterward, dive into Seattle's top attractions. Choose from iconic spots like the Space Needle, Chihuly Garden and Glass, the Museum of Pop Culture, the Seattle Aquarium, or, for history buffs, take an Underground Tour to explore Seattle’s hidden past.

Day 3 – Pick up your rental car and head to the ferry terminal to take the ferry over to Bainbridge Island, where you'll find plenty to explore, before continuing on to Olympic National Park, and the Olympic Peninsula.
Alternate Option – Alternatively, drive north to the Mukilteo Ferry, cross over to Whidbey Island, and head to the charming town of Coupeville for a scenic lunch. Continue your journey north to Deception Pass for breathtaking views. Overnight on Whidbey Island.

Day 4 – Head to the Keystone Ferry Landing and cross to the historic town of Port Townsend. As you drive through Sequim, make sure to stop for an early lunch – especially if it's lavender season! In the afternoon, visit the serene Lake Crescent and hike to the beautiful Marymere Falls.

Day 5 – Spend the day hiking around Olympic National Park's Hurricane Ridge, where you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views and plenty of trails for every skill level.

Begin your day bright and early, with a visit to Forks – the town famous as the setting for the Twilight series. Then, continue along the coast to Ruby Beach, the enchanting Hoh Rainforest, and the tranquil Lake Quinault, before arriving in Ocean Shores.

Spend a relaxing day in the charming beach town of Ocean Shores. Take in the stunning ocean views at Damon Point, enjoy a leisurely walk or fat-tire bike ride along Ocean Shores Beach, or explore the Ocean Shores Wildlife Reserve, perfect for birdwatching and nature walks.

On your journey back to Seattle, take the scenic route through Aberdeen, where Nirvana fans can stop at the Kurt Cobain Memorial Park. Then, continue to Olympia, Washington’s capital, where you can savour a farm-to-table meal before arriving back in Seattle.
