Suffering through a Seattle winter is payed in spades come summer! Last week {when if felt like summer} a friend and I had the most enjoyable afternoon! I thought I would share it- so you could add it to your summer TO-DO-List and maybe discover Local Gems. Great for couples, girlfriends or your whole family.
We started by renting a kayak from Moss Bay. They also rent paddle boards and sailboats, but we chose a double kayak so we could paddle and chat! The day was perfect and it was so nice to be on the water. You paddle by floating homes, Gasworks Park, and enormous yachts. With Seattle’s skyline as the backdrop it doesn’t get much better!
After our paddle, we treated ourselves to lunch at 100 Pound Clam. {It is literally 3 steps away from Moss Bay!} With the best spot on Lake Union and float planes landing in the back ground, it’s THE place for a summer lunch. I highly recommend the dill fries, the fried corn, and the Fishwich BLT- but honestly it’s all delicious! On a warm NW day, the picnic tables and a crisp Rose will be waiting for you.

Looks so fun! I’ve always wanted to kayak in Lake Union.
It’s such a fun day! Hope you find time to paddle soon.
Can’t wait to check out these new spots! I love Adventure Fays!

What a great way to spend the afternoon! We are always looking for new spots to explore…
Sounds like a fun way to spend a day. I may just do that with my family on the next sunny weekend day in Seattle!
I think you will all have a great time! Let’s hope the sun returns soon.
