Bluffs, Beaches + Forest Trails at Lincoln Park

Lincoln Park is one of Seattle's most scenic hidden gems, offering forested trails, saltwater beaches, and panoramic views of Puget Sound, all in one spot. Located in West Seattle, this sprawling waterfront park is perfect for a relaxed date with a little adventure. Wander the wooded bluffs, take in the mountain views, or stroll the paved path that hugs the shoreline. In the spring and fall, the changing leaves and wildflowers make it especially beautiful. You'll also find picnic spots, beach access, and even a seasonal outdoor pool. Whether you're walking, talking, or just watching the ferries go by, it's a peaceful way to spend time outdoors together. For food, you can keep it low-key with a picnic and grab teriyaki or fried chicken from Grillbird or sandwiches and ice cream from Husky Deli. Or go for a more scenic, foodie option with sustainable sushi at Mashiko or waterfront Hawaiian-Korean fusion at Marination Ma Kai. So many good food options in West Seattle!
