Exploring Edmonds

Edmonds is nestled on the edge of Puget Sound and embodies lots of things people look for when they just want to spend a day exploring and get away from their daily routine.  Edmonds is a great choice for people visiting Seattle because it's a quiet waterfront community that is easy to explore on foot, and is accessible by car, the train, or ferry. It provides visitors access to other unique destinations in Puget Sound region.
