alki, seattle, tour, bus. free, #775,alki beach, beach,west seattle
Visit Seattle’s best in-city beach with sand, driftwood, tides, and spectacular views. For those riding the water taxi, this free bus offers an extension of your tour to include a visit to Seattle’s most popular beach and the site where Seattle’s original settlers landed. For those with a car, this tour offers free street parking. From this starting point we can jump on the FREE #775 shuttle bus to Alki Beach. Our free ride goes up the hill to the top of West Seattle and then down the hill to travel west to east along the length of Alki beach before the free bus returns to our starting point. The bus is free and you can exit at a number of stops to walk the beach or linger in a coffee shop or restaurant. The bus helps us enjoy the beach while avoiding the serious parking problems (and expensive parking tickets) typically encountered on a sunny day at this very popular beach. Starts at: 1660 Harbor Ave. S.W. Tour Length: The free bus loops every 16 minutes to allow scenic stops and walks on the beach. All
