Stroll Along the Waterfront
On a summer day, there's no place better to be than the Des Moines Marina.
Walk along the Puget Sound coastline and enjoy the peaceful image of boats bobbing in the waves. The pier is extra long, so you'll feel like you're walking right on the water. While there, you might even catch sight of a seal or sea lion peeking its head out. You can also check out the collection of intriguing art pieces scattered throughout the marina, like the Marinascope.
Visiting on a Saturday during summer? The marina is even more magical, with a farmer's market and occasional live music.
