Tillicum Excursion
A 4-hour vacation just outside the city!
Cruise to nearby Blake Island State Park to explore the 475-acre island which lies north of Vashon Island and south of Bainbridge Island. Eat a Northwest flavors-inspired buffet meal featuring traditionally-prepared alder fire roasted fish and experience a Northwest Native American storytelling show. Don’t forget your camera because the peek-a-boo views of Seattle and of Mount Rainier from the island are spectacular!
