The restrooms were out of order but there was a portapotty near the boat docks. There is ripped of swimming but no lifeguards. They do have a spot where life jackets can be borrowed. The playground was amazing! Lots to interact with. Very very high though and not for little kids younger than 4. Lots of picnic tables near the waters edge. You need to pay entry for parking.

A nature preserve, we saw bald eagles, seals, and osprey plus clams, crabs and ghost shrimp in the tidal flats. Reserve tickets are required for thr boat ride, and you must reserve a return time. Early returns fill up fast, and winds pick up in the afternoon, so take a jacket.

This review is for my last visit this year. I've been here before and ferry was packed!…read moreFortunately, we got tickets in advanced. There was people upstairs and downstairs. Some standing up. So better be on time and make a line if this happens. This year was different. We got tickets but there was just another family. Maybe because we got there at midday. Beach was crowded. We had to walk just a little bit to get a spot and set everything. People come and go with every ferry so there's always space. Just a dew benches but everyone wants to be at the beach near the dry sand. Water will come later on, but the rest is wet. You have to walk for a few minutes to get to the water. It is pretty shallow. This year we had to run because it was shrimp season and they make sand unstable. At first everyone wants to dodge algae, but you end up stepping on it. Getting into the water was the same. It felt like quicksand. It didn't feel quite relaxing. 10 years ago it we would stay for hours in water. Kids would play easily. We'll, at least animals hace set a home! Jetty is a small island just a quarter of mile from Port of Everett. But i don't think you will be able to swim with all your stuff back and forth after a day there :D You ca always kayak if there's no more room in the Ferry. By the way, it is a small passengers only. Strollers won't move on sand so leave it in your car. Do bring everything you need like water, towels, a tent that can resist wind (it gets pretty windy and can blow umbrellas), etc. If you bring food, take all you garbage with you. Don't leave anything. I saw some kids stuff laying there waiting for the water to come over and take it to the sea. So sad. I carried most of it because there are no garbage bins in sight. Also, there is just one floating restroom. It tends to smell. Take it into consideration when drinking lots of water. We usually go to the one in the parking lot first and when coming back. It is very clean. Lots of stalls. Parking lot is big if you extend it to the grass area. There is always someone checking you paid for it.

There are very few parking spots (possibly 4,) two tables, multiple benches, one portal restroom, and a fairly new dock.

There are also several restaurants in the area too ~ Ivar's Landing and walk up, Diamond Knot Brewery and now Hook & Cleaver. Plenty of paid parking, to boot!

Sadly we didn't hit it on a day the lighthouse was open but it was interesting to walk around the grounds. The bathroom was large and clean. You use your phone to pay for parking but it's not expensive. Food options are just steps away, and train enthusiasts will appreciate the locomotives that rumble by periodically. There are several community fire pits available for family gatherings, as well as benches that encourage one to sit and contemplate life, or watch the sunset turn the sky shades of pink and coral.

I live right by here and it is the least maintained park in the surrounding neighborhoods. The park…read moreis not well maintained, benches and tables are aged out, grass is long with a lot of garbage in the surrounding shrubs (also not well maintained) as well as along the waterline. People clearly have been squatting i the more dense shrubs, leading to nests of garbage. For what i'm sure were practical reasons, the garbage cans have been reduced, so there are bags of dog crap everywhere. The "toys" on the west end of the park are partially dismantled and useless. This place clearly was awesome at some point, but now it's a shame. This place has so much potential, b

I could see the seal bobbing in the distance. Despite this area being a sanctuary for the marine wildlife, it is a busy area with ferry going back and off, and boats sailing in the area. Add the constant train noise. It is not a quiet peaceful place. So I was just taking pictures and videos. Then I looked down at the rocks where the water was pretty clear and saw this seal swimming past. I managed to take a video. So cool. This place is also popular with divers. That means parking lot is always full. Your best best is to park a few blocks away and walk over.

After closer examination, we quickly realized that it is nothing to write home about. But to give it credit, it was very clean.

The lake may be man-made, but it's beautiful and makes for a relaxing stroll along the walking path.

The playground is in great shape for kids, and the restrooms were surprisingly clean. There are basketball courts, tennis courts, baseball fields, and lots of open space to enjoy.
