Daniel's West Seattle Studio Guidebook
Sightseeing
Alki Beach has two main sightseeing destinations. First Alki beach with sunset views towards Olympic mountains perfect to enjoy a picnic/bonfire at the beach there's also plenty of restaurants and bars. The second part of Alki known as Alki viewpoint is directly across Seattle skyline the views are phenomenal at night the trick is to find a bench and bring a blanket.
