One of the best places to finish the night. Sandy beach , bonfires , and a sunset gives you the very most relaxation possible.

Joyce Huang

It is way to crowded during the hot days to get on the beach especially during the summer and holidays. But I love the place where we can do bonfire and hang out.

Lizzie Liz

Truly the best beach in Seattle . Bonfire pits, tide pools , clean bathrooms l, snack bar , everything a person could want. Bring your suot, towel, and you! :D

Seth Vong

What a way to end our trip. Nice fire, woofems, spirits and family. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Seattle.

Landon Howell

Aside from watching a sunset from a ferry boat, Golden Gardens is second to none. Come early to picnic . Buddy-up with strangers at a bonfire . Drink until the sun sets behind the Olympic Mountains .

Kate Hailey

one of the loveliest views in the Pacific North West. There's a beach , grills, a pier for fishing and my fave set of trees in the city of Seattle.

Denise F

Best beach near Ballard area, get your friends and family and enjoy sun, playing volleyball or just a picnic barbecue .

Brooke Agather

Get a blanket, jacket , wine and cheese and you're set! Sunny days are great lots of sailboats.

Kaede Balazs

Beach , bonfires , the water, Yes! But on the rare days it's sunny, everyone in Seattle will have the same idea to come here, & parking is awful! Be prepared to circle, or park elsewhere and walk in.

HISTORY

Walk, stroll or simply sit at this beautiful beach overlooking Shilshole Bay . During the day, families and couples walk their dogs or play volleyball , basketball or Frisbee on the sandy beach .

Shawn Anderson

If it's a sunny day during the weekend, avoid trying to park by the playground . You are better off parking by the landing. You'll enjoy the enjoy the walk to the beach !

Pelin Güvenç Kefel

Best beach in Seattle . The water is cold, but it's better than the pebble beaches .

This is the best beach in Seattle - make sure you walk to the far north end of the park for great views of the Sound

Enjoy the beautiful beach , crab fish off the pier , and enjoy some halibut and chips at Coney's. This is my fave spot in Seattle so far.

Sarah Bootykah

Come early if you want parking or a fire pit !

Kristie A

The beach empties out after sunset . Grab one of the still burning bonfires (lazy people don't put the out) and enjoy yourself....

R T

The park enforcement puts your fire out at 9:30, and you can get it going again when they're gone.

Saw a huge harbor seal here today. It was super close to the shore, just hanging out.

Dora

It's often windy and a little chilly here - even on warm, sunny days, so be sure to bring a sweater. Powered by ParentsConnect.com Read more

lots of fire pits and beaches

Anthony Edwards

On a sunny evening, kharma smiles down. Gorgeous and alive.

Nabeel

Take the cool roundabout at the end of the main parking lot for old fashioned goodness.

John Porter

A great off-leash park to take your dogs. The upper area is better for fetching, while the lower half is good for socializing.

Mary S

Some of the best sunsets ever.

Jack Reeves

Perfect for sunsets .

Christian Williams

Great place to watch the sunset . If there is sun that day!

Get here early to claim a fire-pit! Watch the cruise ships pass right around 4:30/5p

Good luck finding a parking spot . Lot off 85th St NW is a little better
