Timeline

Grab a warm crumpet and a coffee. The Crumpet Shop is open until 4 PM on weekdays and 4 PM on weekends, so this is a perfect pre-sunset snack.

Walk off the sugar by visiting the Gum Wall. It is just a short walk from the bakery and open 24/7.
20:37
Head to the Olympic Sculpture Park. The park opens 30 minutes before sunrise and closes 30 minutes after sunset, so you will have plenty of time to settle in.
21:07
Find the viewing spot facing WSW. On the dates between 12 Jun and 29 Jun, the sun sets directly behind the park. Enjoy the golden light fading over the Elliott Bay.
21:52
End the evening at The Pink Door. It is a short walk away and serves as a great bar with a romantic European market ambiance. It is open until 23:30 on weekdays and 01:00 on weekends.
Local tip
The park is free, but arrive early to get a good spot near the water if you want to see the sun align perfectly with the sculptures.
