South Park - Seattle, WA Area Guide

Niche Reviews Niche logo

Nestled in South Seattle just north of the city of Tukwila, the neighborhood of South Park lies along the west bank of the Duwamish River. Besides bustling businesses, a number of parks devoted to recreation and wildlife restoration call the Duwamish waterfront home. In the fall, abundant salmon swim up the river to spawn, and South Park residents can watch from shore as osprey and sea lions hunt them. Kayaks and other watercraft enter the river from the Duwamish Yacht Club and the South Park Marina. Housing varies from apartments with amenities to cozy brick houses for rent. Enjoy the friendly ambiance of the small business center of South Park. Stop in at Loretta's Northwesterner for a delicious burger and a beer, or sample some Washington wines at Nota Bene Cellars and O.S. Winery.
