February 14 is rapidly approaching. Don’t miss the chance to take a breath from wedding planning and celebrate to the fullest. Mix things up this year with a new destination, whether you go for something quirky, extravagant or adventurous. Whether you’re spending Valentine’s Day with friends, a significant other or indulging in some much-needed self love, create an evening full of moments that will keep you warm for the rest of winter.

The Classic Crab Pot

What comes to mind when you think of Seattle? Romantic rain? The salty wharf? Enjoy a little of both with a seafood dinner at the iconic Crab Pot. Tuck in your bib and have your mallet at the ready. This Valentine’s Day, The Crab Pot is serving the seafood dinner of dreams: four varieties of fresh and regionally sourced crab (a whole three pounds of it!), red jacket potatoes, fresh corn, andouille sausage and head-on shrimp. If you are not too full post-dinner, wander the pier for a quintessential Seattle experience or take in the glow of the city from the top of The Great Wheel.

Who says Valentine’s should be limited to one day? If you need a quick escape from the city, hop on a quick ferry to one of Washington’s most stunning island destinations. Whidbey Island is a true Pacific Northwest gem with accommodations suited to every type of traveler, ranging from a rustic waterfront cabin to a stay in a luxury hotel. One of the many weekend festivities includes indulging in a drink (or a few) of your choice at the annual Red Wine & Chocolate Tour provided by Whidbey’s wineries and distilleries for a catered experience. If a weekend of quiet bliss is more your style, hike or fish the many beaches with your sweetheart.
