Bell Harbor Marina
About
Bell Harbor Marina is a public ocean beach at Bell Street Pier at Pier 66, about half a mile from Seattle, Washington. The site has restrooms, accessible access and parking, and a fee is charged. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan a visit around the shoreline rather than the water. Summer is the most comfortable time to come. At a nearby weather station, typical July and August highs average about 77°F, with only around four wet days a month, compared with roughly 19 wet days in December and January. The Waterfront Trail starts just 0.4 miles away, and the Trail to Treasure is about a mile off. Climbers can find Seattle Urban Climbing within 2 miles, and Lewis Park Trail is about 2 miles away.
