So fun!!! I love that these are here…could have swung all day but folks waiting so had to share!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for children and adults who want a short, memorable outdoor experience near Seattle's stadium and waterfront district. The swings are in high demand — expect to share and queue on busy days. Not a structured playground, so families with very young children will want to combine this with a nearby park visit for a fuller outing.

Overview

These swings on WA-519 near the Seattle waterfront sit within sight of the water and offer what reviewers describe as great views from the air. The installation draws genuine enthusiasm — one reviewer says they could have swung all day. Demand regularly outpaces supply, with visitors asked to share and take turns. Community-funded through dedicated administrative effort, the swings are a unique outdoor feature that appeals to children and adults alike. Rain doesn't deter regulars.
