Your sailing begins at one of two piers: Pier 66 on the downtown waterfront, or Pier 91 farther north at Smith Cove. Before anything else, find out which Seattle cruise terminal your ship uses, since that one detail shapes how you get there and how much time you have.
Let your ship's pier set the plan. Pier 66 sits on the downtown waterfront within reach of Pike Place Market. Pier 91 lies further north at Smith Cove, so most passengers will need a ride. Open the Seattle cruise port guide for more on both.
Many passengers add a night in the city. Browse where to stay, then spend time at Pike Place Market and along the Seattle waterfront. Still choosing your trip? Read up on Alaska cruises from Seattle. Before you set out, confirm boarding times and pier details with your cruise line.
Your cruise documents name the pier. Seattle cruises use Pier 66 downtown and Pier 91 at Smith Cove.
Many visitors can, because it is on the downtown waterfront. Luggage and hills may make a short ride easier.
