Top Things To Do In West Seattle This Winter


Life quiets down in West Seattle during the crisp, cool months of winter, but there are still plenty of things to do. Whether you love getting out in nature, enjoying the arts, or playing games, there is something for everyone near Junction this winter.

Quiet Beach Walks

Alki Beach is a popular West Seattle destination in the summer, but wintertime offers a quiet and less crowded opportunity to skate the boardwalk, stroll along the beach, or simply take in the stunning views of downtown Seattle. 

Hike an Old Growth Forest

Even in the city, nature is never far away. Camp Long in West Seattle, which is just one mile from the Maris Apartments, allows visitors to hike through an old forest, try out a ropes course, and even rock climb.  

West Seattle Art Walk

If strolling near the Junction while enjoying art, food, drink, and music sounds fun to you, check out the West Seattle Art Walk that takes place on the second Thursday of every month. This free community event runs year-round.  

Take in a Live Show

Visit the ArtsWest Playhouse for live theater, music, and comedy. Just a short walk from the Maris Apartments, ArtsWest Playhouse has live shows, hosts an art gallery, and offers educational programming.

Go Bowling

Believe it or not, bowling is one of the most popular things to do near Junction. West Seattle Bowl has been a staple of the community for over 70 years. Grab some friends, and have a fun afternoon knocking over pins!
