Once February rolls around, spring is on the minds of many. Temperatures are beginning to warm, the sun comes out more often, and flowers start to burst into bloom. After a long, often wet winter, those colorful, lush landscapes make getting outdoors even more enticing.\u00a0While rain is a possibility all year-round in the Pacific Northwest, there’s plenty to do indoors and out during the season, whether it’s sprinkling or the sun is peeking out from behind the clouds. That means now<\/em> is the perfect time about what to put on your calendar among the best things to do in Seattle this spring.<\/p>\n

Even better for those in Victoria BC or its surrounds? You can take advantage of a special seasonal deal.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Cruise to Seattle on the Clipper Fast Ferry from Victoria<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As noted, if you’re coming from across the border, one of the most scenic ways to get to Seattle from Victoria is by taking the Clipper fast ferry. Sailing across the water while surrounded by spectacular views on the three-hour ride is all part of the adventure. And, once you arrive at Pier 69, you’ll be just steps from numerous waterfront attractions, shops, restaurants, and hotels<\/a>. Furthermore, not only are there special spring deals for the route, but as a show of appreciation for our neighbors, Canadians can advantage of the exclusive round-trip fare<\/a> for residents.<\/p>\n

2. Discover Olympic Sculpture Park<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Olympic Sculpture Park<\/a> is right on the waterfront near the FRS Clipper terminal. That makes it the perfect spot to spend time in on a sunny spring day for those who arrive or depart on the Clipper. Seattle’s largest downtown green space, it’s an ideal place to stroll, picnic or just relax and enjoy the view. You’ll be mesmerized by the vision of Puget Sound, the boats that come and go, and the craggy peaks of the Olympics beyond. Of course, as the name suggests, there are also sculptures and art installations to check out while walking the winding paths.<\/p>\n

3. Whale and Other Wildlife Watching<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Spring is a great time to spend a few hours on the water. And, just outside downtown Seattle it’s possible to see the region’s showstoppers! Gray whales can be spotted during their annual migration through mid-May, although March and April peak months for sightings. But throughout the season on a half-day Seattle Wildlife & Whale Watching Tour with Clipper Vacations<\/a>, an expert onboard naturalist will help point out other marine life too. That includes humpback whales, transient orcas, sea lions, sea otters, and much more!<\/p>\n

If you want to focus on the annual migration of the gray whales, book the Seattle Gray Whale Watching Tour with Clipper Vacations<\/a>. Traveling within a short window once a year, this is your best bet for encounters with our 35-ton friends that visit the area’s waters on their 5,000-mile journey.<\/p>\n

It takes place over 11 days in May each year at theaters and other venues throughout the city which means you’ll have numerous opportunities to attend. Not only are professionals encouraged to attend, but film enthusiasts of all types.<\/p>\n

5. Catch a Seattle Mariners’ Game<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One best things to do in Seattle this spring, and frankly, every spring, is to cheer on the home team. The Seattle Mariners’<\/a> home opener is typically scheduled in late March, just after the start of the season. You can even soak up the spring sun, thanks to the stadium’s retractable roof. But if the weather doesn’t cooperate, there are no rainouts. Seattleites are nothing if not weather-prepared!<\/p>\n

Plus, with T-Mobile Park within walking distance from the waterfront and close proximity to a wide range of excellent hotels, you won’t have to travel far. Just follow your nose to enjoy hot dogs, peanuts, or even a classic Ivar’s chowder bread bowl, complemented with a fresh-poured cold beer.<\/p>\n

6. Watch the Action at Lake Washington Ship Canal<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Lake Washington Ship Canal<\/a> passes through Lake Union, Portage Bay and Union Bay, linking Lake Washington’s freshwater and the saltwater of the Puget Sound. From the Ballard Locks<\/a>, you’ll have the perfect vantage point for admiring it during a stroll. Watch the ships pass through the complex system, or walk across Montlake Bridge where you can see the kayakers paddle through the Montlake Cut.<\/p>\n

7. Snap a Sunset Selfie at the Space Needle<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Did you know that sunsets tend to be more vibrant in the spring? Without the constant cloud cover of winter, the golden hour is spectacular. That makes capturing a sky-high selfie from the Space Needle one of the best things to do in Seattle this spring! Plus, side note: Clipper Vacations<\/a> even has a special deal that includes Seattle’s most iconic landmark and Chihuly Garden and Glass.<\/p>\n

The wetlands attract local tortoises and waterfowl, so keep watch. The park is also another one of the best vantage points for watching a glorious sunset.

11. Stroll Through Seattle’s Gardens<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It might be the most obvious of the best things to do in Seattle this spring, but we can’t leave out the city’s gardens. Once the sun has finally decided to show up, there’s no better way to celebrate Seattle\u2019s season of bloom than to stop and smell the flowers. From hidden neighborhood pocket parks to sprawling acres of botanical gardens, the Emerald City can even give Victoria a run for its money come springtime.<\/p>\n

13. Check Out Unique Gas Works Park<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With sweeping views of the Seattle skyline alongside antique machinery from a bygone gas plant, Gas Works Park<\/a> is unquestionably one of the most unique city parks. In a true lemons-to-lemonade turn, the city made good use of the lingering gas plant equipment. Some were turned into picnic shelters and others were painted for use in the children\u2019s play area, while allowing the rest to sprout out of the lawns like modern urban park art.<\/p>\n
