WHETHER IT’S THE RELENTLESS gray of a Seattle winter or the city’s startling capacity for beauty—no place on this earth does summertime like Seattle.

There may not be many perfect days in Seattle’s annual allotment, but here’s the good news: They’re all lined up ahead of us like sails on a Lake Washington Duck Dodge. We’ve told you where to go, what you’ll be looking at there, whether to bundle up to go, and what to order when you do. So what are you waiting for…sun’s out!
