Seattle's Digging Paradise | Chism Beach Park

📍 Chism Beach Park is an absolute hidden gem for families on Seattle's east side! Kids can dig to their heart's content on this fine, soft sandy beach! 🤩 ✨ Highly recommended for families with children: The sand is amazing! 👣 The grains are fine and soft—perfect for bare feet. Kids will love digging here, whether building castles, tunnels, or waterways. No project is too big! It’s far better than the sand at many lakeside parks. Safe shallow waters! 🏖️ The park is on Lake Washington, but the shoreline is shallow and gentle, making it relatively safe for little ones to splash around (though parental supervision is still a must!). Wading in the water is super refreshing in the summer. Breathtaking views! 🌅 The lake views are expansive, with the Seattle skyline on the opposite shore and Mt. Rainier as a backdrop (on clear days). While the kids play, parents can enjoy the scenery and take gorgeous photos! Spacious grounds! There’s a grassy area for picnics 🧺, shady trees to relax under 🌳, and plenty of room to run around without feeling crowded. There’s also a playground to switch things up (though small, it’s perfect for a change of pace). #Chism Beach Park#Seattle#Washington#travel guide#trip diary#Seattle guide
