Polar bears high five at the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium. Bring the family for a fun-filled day where you can get nose to nose with a giraffe, cagey with a wild cat, high five a polar bear and even ride atop a camel. Dive deeper into nature when you find exhibits and attractions like the 24,000-gallon Lagoon swimming with sharks, octopus and all kinds of sea creatures.

Slip and slide through gallons of wild family fun at the Wild Waves Theme Park. Twist and turn on rides and attractions like the Riptide, where you grab your inner tube and go wild, or get wilder on The Wild Thing and Timber Axe thrill rides. Recharge and refresh at Lumber Jack Burgers or Pizza Pier.

Dive in at Tacoma Scuba. Let the professionals teach you how to scuba dive during one of their scuba dive classes, specialty dive classes or tech dive classes. Dive like a pro in no time and you'll be going on a dive excursion like the Annual Bonaire Adventure, aka, Divers Paradise.

Take a different path for a night of entertainment and head over to the Emerald Queen Casino & Hotel in Tacoma. Sure there's plenty of gambling to be had but the real fun begins when you get your ticket to live musical entertainment to see greats like Vince Gill and the Commodores.
