Stretched along I-5, about 25 miles north of Seattle, Everett is home to a Boeing plant as well as the largest public marina on the West Coast. Everett occupies a unique location with convenience to big-city amenities, beaches, and the mountains. You can just as easily take a drive to Downtown Seattle as you can to Jetty Island or Mount Pilchuck State Park.
Various museums such as Imagine Children’s Museum, Schack Art Center, Flying Heritage and Combat Armor Museum, and the Museum of Flight Restoration Center all serve to ignite curiosity. Opportunities for outdoor recreation abound at Legion Park, Howarth Park, Grand Avenue Park, and Spencer Island Park. The Historic Everett Theatre hosts a range of performances in addition to the Xfinity Arena, which also houses the local hockey team, the Silvertips. Local watering holes include Lazy Boy Brewing, Port Gardner Bay Winery, and At Large Brewing.
