This area is kept clean and a wonderful place to walk around on a sunny Olympia day. The only reason it didn't get an excellent review is that several of the new covered tables along the board walk are new hang outs for the homeless. Down towards the restaurants is a better bet.

Percival Landing is in downtown Olympia on the waterfront. It is lovely to walk around in on sunny days. Several festivals are held here throughout year.

This very nice farmer's market has a great selection of local products and foods and with lots of parking nearby, is a must see. Make sure to walk along the docks-- not much to do, but a nice walk; and it's only about a mile around Olympic Lake which has a great setting just below the capital. I hope this... More

Peaceful and beautitul. On a sunny day you get a gorgeous view of the Olympic mountains. Also you can see the State capitol, the Farmer's market, and a nicely refurbished waterfront area.

We loved our walk on the Boardwalk and viewing all the public art. Dinner at Budd Bay Cafe and then a walking tour of downtown, historic Olympia the next day. Very enjoyable.

Beautiful walk and views. Great walk along the water. Not much to do... but a nice walk none the less.

This is another jewel of Olympia. Newly refurbished with landscaping, covered picnic tables, children's playground and art. Right on the sound with boats, water, harbor seals and wonderful people watching. In the heart of downtown there is easy access to shopping and dining.

Wonderful place to walk -- great views of the city, Olympics and people. There is a park for childern along the boardwalk where you can sit and watch people as well as have a picnic lunch. There is also art work all along the boardwalk.

This is a pleasant & generally uncrowded place to walk along the waterfront with sculptures, children's play areas, views of the Capitol one way, the Olympics the other; shops, restaurants nearby; lots of boats to look at. During special events, like the Wooden Boat Show and Harbor Days, it's lively & more crowds but not unbearable.
