What to do and see in Bellingham, Washington (WA): The Best Things to do for Honeymoon

May 6, 2022 Marissa Gamble

The Pacific Northwest scarcely gets more peaceful than unspoiled Bellingham, a bustling city nestled in the Bellingham Bay. Nature abounds in all directions surrounding this coastal paradise. The waters of the Pacific offer opportunities for whale watching, cruising to Friday Harbor or visiting the Canadian city of Victoria. To the east, Mt. Baker beckons skiers and snowboarders to its slopes. The city itself is alive with vibrant theater, historical museums, gourmet restaurants and fine arts.

Boulevard Park

Stopped here on a cloudy Friday afternoon in mid June. Great walk across the water. We spotted a seal and some Canadian geese. Lots of benches to relax on and take in the tranquil waters. Highly recommend
