When people go on a beach vacation to see the ocean sunbathe and do all that comes along with a beach vacation, does Seattle come to mind? No. San Diego does though

True that but if people are going on a mountain vacation they would think of Seattle 😀. Also Seattle is a larger cruise port city.
If this thread were even ten years I suspect SD would have been the clear winner, today i would suspect Seattle, its funny how places heat up in terms of desireability
Shopping I would go with Seattle I like traditional Downtowns to shopping malls nothing like massive department stores compared to malls.
