Seattle — the city of coffee, grunge, and perpetual gray skies. But throw a gorgeous female companion into the equation, and all of a sudden the Emerald City is a playground of seduction, adventure, and memories that will last a lifetime. From waterfront walks to fine dining to a bit of late-night fun, Seattle's got it all — and it's even better with the right woman.

Here's my own story of the sexy, flirtatious, and sometimes downright sexy things to do in Seattle with a beautiful escort on my arm.

1. Cocktails with a View at The Nest

I wanted to begin with a gaze — and The Nest, the rooftop bar atop the Thompson Seattle, did not disappoint. We took a spot by the glass railing, Puget Sound stretched out before us, the Ferris wheel shimmering in the distance.

She arrived in a fashionable black ensemble that competed with the sunset for neck turns, and with every sip of handcrafted cocktails (my bourbon-spiced Old Fashioned, hers spicy mezcal margarita), the conversation became a bit more provocative, the smiles a bit more knowing.

Seattle's night skyline is beautiful — but the real showstopper was my date.

2. Finding Pike Place Market — With a Twist

You can't go to Seattle and not go to Pike Place Market — but with her along, even getting through tourists was part of the fun. We strolled through the market, snacked on oysters at The Walrus and the Carpenter, and made a wager on who would end up with the silliest souvenirs.

At the infamous Gum Wall, she leaned in close, her lips inches from mine, and teased, "Do you think anyone's ever had a first kiss here?" Let's just say I didn't let the moment get away.

3. Seaplane Adventure Over Lake Union

For a truly unique experience, I booked for us a Kenmore Air seaplane tour. We departed from Lake Union, soaring over the city, the Space Needle and Elliott Bay sparkling beneath us.

There is something of that lightness — the rumble of the engines, the city skyline folding beneath — that's uncannily intimate. With her having her hand on my leg and her open-eyed smile, it was one of those things that you wish you could preserve.

4. Canlis: Seattle's fine dining style

Seattle’s got its share of food hotspots, but Canlis is in a class of its own. Floor-to-ceiling windows, impeccable service, and a tasting menu that rivals anything I’ve had on the West Coast.

We dressed up to the nines — she in a slinky silk number, me doing my best to keep up — and braced ourselves for a slow, hedonistic meal. The caviar and the wagyu were served over, and then the wine arrived, as did the more and more flirtatious conversation.

There's just something about the impeccable food, the sultry atmosphere, and the lovely date that makes you feel like you've won at life.

5. After-Hours at The Pink Door

For a steamy, offbeat nightcap evening, we slipped into The Pink Door — half cabaret, half Italian restaurant, and all atmosphere. Hidden in a hidden alley in Pike Place, it's the kind of place where velvet curtains, aerial performances, and candlelit tables provide the perfect atmosphere.

With a glass of bubbly in hand and her fingers tracing lazy circles on my wrist, we let the night unfold slowly, savoring the seductive energy that seemed to hum through the air.

6. Waterfront Strolls & The Seattle Great Wheel

There is a romance to Seattle's waterfront, especially at night. We strolled along the piers after dinner, the salt air just cool enough to give me an excuse to wrap my arms around her.

We took a ride on the Seattle Great Wheel, our private gondola offering just enough privacy for some flirting up close as city lights sparkled beneath. It's often the most ordinary moments — a laugh, a stolen kiss — that remain longest.

7. Luxury Stay at The Four Seasons

No jaunt to Seattle with a beautiful escort would be complete without a luxury home base, and The Four Seasons Seattle did not disappoint. Our room had a view over Puget Sound, the bed was almost too inviting to leave, and the giant soaking tub almost begged for champagne and bubbles.

After a day of walking about, it was the perfect refuge — just us two, city lights, and that sort of chemistry that can turn a hotel room into a playground with your seattle escort!
