About
This public ocean beach in Washington sits about 4.3 miles from Seattle, close enough for an easy outing from the city. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan on a beach walk or time on the sand rather than a dip. There is no fee to visit. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs of about 76 to 77°F, lows near 57°F, and only about six wet days a month, compared with 18 to 20 wet days in late fall and winter. Several trails are close by. Green Lake Trail is about 2.9 miles away, Piper's Creek Trail about 3.1 miles, and the Burke-Gilman Trail about 3.7 miles. Seattle Urban Climbing, about 4.8 miles off, rounds out the options for a longer day.
