Suggestions for Beach near Seattle

Candice R. • July 26, 2016I love this beach, it has great viewpoints of the city and a lot of fun spots to eat and explore

Logan K. • April 5, 2016Best beach in Seattle. The water is cold, but it's better than the pebble beaches.

Regan C. • June 26, 2010Take a run from Cormorant Cove through Alki Beach, cut back up California Way, stretch and enjoy the view at Hamilton Park, then retrace your steps on the way back!

Downtown Seattle Y. • August 22, 2011Great local place for a hike down to the beach!

Rony • August 14, 2013You cant go wrong with the traditional curried chicken roti- it is pretty awesome

Oremo O. • August 9, 2015Great beach to go for a swim on warm days

Tom L. • October 24, 2011Check the tide schedule. Awesome beach combing at low tide.

Sarah • July 21, 2010Quick tour of the olympic sculpture park then relax on the scenic beach/park on lake union waterfront (ideal with a pike place picnic)

Elie K. • July 25, 2010The little stretch just south of the parking lot is nicer than the designated beach: the lawn is larger, there is a dock you can dive off, and there are no lifeguards to yell at you.

Leigh K. • June 29, 2015Absolutely my new favorite park, shade, tables, swimming, walking trails and beaches 👍🏻😉💛

Maria N. • April 27, 2016Good place to take a walk or picnic on the beaches. The hiking trails on top are worth the walk. Clean but can be unsafe at night.

Sylvi B. • April 18, 2010Great Dog walk. People beach, trees, grass. What more could a Labrador want?

Pelin G. • December 26, 2018This beach is an awesome place to take a walk and breath in the fresh air

soul • June 6, 2013When the sun is out this is the Best pace on earth..!

Larissa V. • October 22, 2017Good place for a run in all weather.

Alexandria B. • April 23, 2012There is a turtle that lives to the left of the dock between the beach area and the fallen tree.

Bensen • May 26, 2013Follow Alki around the bend to Beach Drive SW. My favorite view from West Seattle. Keep driving and it will take you to Lincoln Park.

Ian M. • July 4, 2012Come during low tide for some of the best tide pools outside of West Seattle.

Kristin B. • February 26, 2012Breathe deeply...the beach is healing... :-)

Mary S. • March 6, 2016I love this view of the city

Sidney C. • June 28, 2014Park consists of a parking lot and a dock. Gorgeous view of the city. But I recommend going to Alki for the beach fun.

Ken S. • January 17, 2010Stretch here before walking down beach drive to lower Lincoln Park. Great views @ sunset, and Tennis!

Alex S. • December 31, 2010Walk down the stairs to the beach!

Holly B. • July 12, 2015Great hike, beautiful views and lots to do - playgrounds, picnic areas, beach, meadows. Good place to spend a day!

Gaston M. • July 28, 2018Pretty horrible beach, but it makes for a good hike if you come to that beach from the park. Also there's a train going by every freaking 10 mins.

Robby D. • July 26, 2012Small beach, very pleasant. Looks out over the nearby Magnolia marina. Nice place to stop and enjoy lunch.

Katy I. • January 13, 2022Nice steps to sit on, good spot for a picnic, beautiful water views, but it does get crowded on a nice day and the free parking at the Expedia garage seems to have closed :(

James W. • November 12, 2013If you are able to take your eyes off the gorgeous views of the Sound and Olympic Mountains, you may see actual cormorants or even sea otters around this area.
