That’s just one of the sights we saw on a boat tour of the Duwamish River last December. You can get an even better look at the people, wildlife, industry, and history of the river that borders much of easternmost West Seattle by taking an evening community-kayaking tour this summer. The Duwamish River Cleanup Coalition presents the tours along with West Seattle’s own Alki Kayak Tours, and this summer’s tour series is about to begin. Every other Wednesday night, from this coming Wednesday (July 6th) through September 14th, a tour will leave either from the West Seattle or South Park shore of the river. The full schedule is here, along with the cost and other parameters.
