Tillicum Village Paddle Trip

Since 1962, thousands of groups have visited Tillicum Village for the fresh salmon dinner and to experience the Northwest Coast Native American culture. Located only 8 miles from Seattle's downtown waterfront on Blake Island State Park, this beautiful shore side setting provides a perfect location.

  • Walk up a path strewn with white clamshells bleached by the sun and enjoy steaming clams in nectar broth. Dine in an authentic cedar longhouse, savor salmon baked over open fires on cedar stakes.
  • Enjoy a spellbinding dance performance, providing an emotional journey through the legends and dances of the Northwest Coast Indians.
  • Browse through our Gift Gallery of Northwest Coast Native American art, including hand carved masks, plaques, totem poles and beaded jewelry are available for purchase in the Gift Gallery
