I have to admit, I was pretty skeptical before I went...it just sounded like some dumb locks that salmon jump...but it is worth the trip. It is a lot more interesting than what I thought. The visiting center is nice...and the area is beautiful. It's definately worth the trip..especially if you are a tourist.

Pros: Great tourist spot, better than expected

Editor's Review

A short drive from downtown, this water-bound spectacle is a great place to get the feel for Seattle's maritime life.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

When to Go

Boats come and go year-round, but to see the fish ladder in action, avoid November through February and the month of May, when the salmon aren't running.
