A bus on Alaskan Way

The best way to experience Seattle’s Waterfront is on foot. The 1.3 mile stretch along Alaskan Way is marked by the Ferry Terminal on Colman Dock at the south end and the new Olympic Sculpture Park to the north. The walk from each end takes about 30 minutes, but you will surely be distracted by the many attractions and activities along the way.

If your time is limited, there are many quick transportation options available. By land or by sea, the links to the right are designed to help you find your way to, from and around the Downtown Seattle Waterfront.
