O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: The Wharf spans nearly a mile along D.C.'s Southwest Waterfront and opened in 2017 as a $2.5 billion redevelopment project. Its piers host over 1,200 boats annually, from historic schooners to yachts, plus a floating concert venue that bobs with the Potomac's tides.
Poudarki: On summer evenings, the Municipal Fish Market at the Wharf's edge glows under string lights as fishmongers hawk the day's catch the same way they have since 1805, making it the oldest continuously operating fish market in the United States. You can buy fresh crab right off the boat, then walk 20 feet to picnic tables overlooking the water where seagulls circle and vendors shuck oysters to order.
Notranji nasveti
- Bring cash if you plan to buy from the fish market, many vendors don't accept cards.
- Head to the rooftop bar at Hotel Washington for a stunning free view of the Wharf and marina from above.
- Arrive before 5 PM on weekends to snag a table at waterfront restaurants before the dinner rush.
- Skip the overpriced tourist boats and rent a $30 kayak from Boating in DC for a self-guided paddle around the piers.
