WHAT TO KNOW

BEFORE YOU GO

Soak in the Sun Showers

Depending on the time of year you visit the Pacific Northwest, rain is common here, so be sure to pack appropriate clothes. Compact umbrellas, light rain jackets and waterproof shoes are just a few of the items you should pack.

Whether you're ATVing or waterfall trekking, you're sure to find yourself outside no matter what you do in Hawaii. Always have your bathing suit, sunscreen and sunglasses in your day pack.

Insider Tips

1 Although the West Coast is known for its sunshine, it tends to cool off at night no matter the season, so pack light layers.

2 Hiking in Vancouver is a must! Be sure to pack insect repellent and bear spray to be cautious.

3 There's some etiquette to know when visiting Stanley Park in Vancouver. The majority of the path is a very strict one-way. If you get confused, refer to the signs providing direction all along the path, or ask a local to help you out.

A HIGHER STANDARD

From artisanal baked goods to ultra-fresh seafood, the creators of West Coast cuisine are committed to excellence.

The Old Way to Doughnut

When visiting Seattle, you need to try Top Pot Doughnuts. This doughnut shop is not only known for its hand-made circles of love but also its vintage aesthetic and commitment to doing things the old-fashioned (and delicious) way.

Vancouver, British Columbia Briny Oysters

Take a Bite of Vancouver

Being that this city is located on the Pacific coast, you can enjoy some of the freshest fish in the world. On top of that, organic vegetables and locally sourced meats are plentiful at restaurants across the city. Head to Bluewater Cafe for cold briny oysters on the half shell.

Keep Your Cool

Beat the heat with the Hawaiian classic shaved ice. You'll find both locals and travelers enjoying this icy cool treat. What is shaved ice? It's a dessert made with ice finely shaved from a block, topped with fruit and fruit puree syrups. Head to Island Vintage Shaved Ice in Honolulu and order the lilikoi over soft serve ice cream.
