Found this beach Park in Seattle with good views of the Olympic Mountains, and the slight skyline. The walking / biking path is ideal, the sand is perfect for relaxing, and there’s plenty of places to grab a bite nearby. Great spot for a sunset stroll or a low-key beach day.

Always one of my favorite spots in Seattle! The weather was wonderful and traffic was great. There were people having BBQ and playing sand volleyball. The waves were huge as it’s a low tide day. Very cool to see how the stairs were revealed! I could also spot tiny space needle from the beach! Very peaceful.
