Alki is great: beach walking, summer bike rentals, a spectacular view, lots of restaurants, and one of the two areas in Seattle where you can have a fire on the beach (bring wood and expect to share with strangers). This area is very popular with teenagers at night so expects lots of traffic and groups.
