Seattle Pike Place Fish Market This past summer 2018, I acted as a tour guide for friends visiting Seattle for the first time.

It is conveniently located at Pier 59 on the Elliott Bay waterfront among the quaint shops that line the harbor area. Check out their website Seattle Aquarium  for events, tickets, and location.
