Fall is just around the corner, and one of the most stunning places to celebrate the change of the seasons is on the Washington coast, at Seabrook. With unique events, seasonal cuisine and gorgeous autumn colors – Seabrook is just a 2.5 hour drive from Seattle and provides a perfect getaway to celebrate all that fall has to offer.
It’s the best kept secret that September in Washington is a beautiful time of year – and after Labor Day, the pace tends to slow as schools open their doors for the new year. Many find that this is the perfect time of the year to hit the beach and get the most out of your vacation. Grab your hiking shoes and camera and catch some of the best sunsets over the Pacific. Pamper yourself with a walk on the beach, followed by a visit to Spa Elizabeth. Enjoy an afternoon with a good book and happy hour at the Stowaway Wine Bar. With over a dozen shops and restaurants (and more on the way!), Seabrook’s Town Center will keep you entertained, whether it’s painting pottery at Imagine That, finding cute beach gear for the little ones at Seabrook Kids, or stocking up on your fall home décor at SeaWorthy Home.
If a social scene is more your style, Seabrook’s event calendar has you covered. From pumpkin carving to beer festivals – there is something for every child, parent and beachgoer. Kick off fall with Big Foot Brew Fest on October 7th and taste over a dozen local breweries, many with exclusive beers just for Seabrook’s beer festival! There will be food trucks and live entertainment to enjoy while you sip away the day, so best to be a responsible festivalgoer and book a cottage for the weekend to maximize your getaway. Check out the Big Foot Brew Fest event details and learn more about the breweries and entertainment coming to the Washington Coast.
On Saturday, October 14, you have the exclusive opportunity to tour some of the most beautiful and thoughtfully designed homes on the Washington Coast at Seabrook’s Fall Home Showcase. Stroll through open houses while enjoying live music and local fare.
In the Northwest, the bounty is abundant for seasonal cuisine and this is on display at the restaurants in Seabrook. Grab a local pumpkin ale at Mill109 with your razor clam sandwich or head to Frontager’s for a gourmet pizza bursting with flavor and local ingredients.

A New Place to Ice Skate by the Water
Hyatt Regency Lake Washington’s dockside rink offers lake views and eco-friendly synthetic ice.
Skating season has officially arrived. There’s a particular joy in gliding—or trying to—on cold days. I always go for the outdoor rinks, especially the ones strung with twinkling lights. It can be so romantic. And this year, there’s a new place to lace up. A 71-foot by 38-foot covered Glice rink is up and running…
Bergen: Finding a Home, Abroad
A trip across western Norway reveals strikingly Northwest sensibilities.
A few months ago, we randomly walked into Wallingford’s Fat Cat Records. Greeting us, face-out by the cash register, was not Nirvana, not Soundgarden, but Peer Gynt Suite, by the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. Was this a Norse omen, a mischievous prank from Loki? For us, two Seattleites with a trip to Norway on the…
Hives Among the Headstones
Inside a north Seattle project reimagining cemeteries as sanctuaries for pollinators.
In many old stories, bees are more than just insects. They’re messengers—tiny intermediaries between the living and the dead. There was once even a custom in Europe and America known as “telling the bees:” When a family member died, or another significant life event occurred, someone would go to the hive to share the news….
Dispatches from Greenland, Part Two: Nuuk
An insider’s guide to Greenland’s mysterious, overlooked, and charming capital.
Greenland is too vast to take in all at once. Yet a few days in Nuuk—the island’s compact, curious capital, just a four-hour flight from Newark—offer a surprisingly complete portrait. Nuuk changes like the weather that shapes it: by turns wild and polished; intimate and bold. To Northerners, it feels as hectic as Manhattan; to…
