Take a Beach Day
The beach is calling, and it's closer than you think.
Seattle Southside is filled with beaches, where you can trade the sound of traffic for the serene lapping of waves and the quiet squawking of gulls overhead. Walk along the Puget Sound shore at Des Moines Beach Park, Redondo Beach, or Saltwater State Park, and you might even spot a seal bobbing out of the water, or a whale breaching in the distance. Or, head to Angle Lake Park, which is walkable from the Link Light Rail, and enjoy an incredible view of Mt. Rainier.
