Took advantage of the surprisingly good weather by going to a beach we had never been to before.
Note - it does cost $10 to park and park rangers/staff were actively ticketing cars who did not pay. (Discover Pass does not work here, you can buy a Snohomish County Park Pass but we didn't look into the details of this.) The plus-side of paying for parking is that the beach was not super crowded like if you were to go to a beach in Seattle.
We walked along with our doggo and baby in hiking backpack for about an hour on the beach. (We didn't go to the trails since that seemed to only go to the campsites and involved pretty steep-looking stairs.) Lucked out with low tide when we arrived around 1:30 pm. Lots of mussels, clams and little crabs to see! The nice thing was that the beach is pretty long so there were lots of "sand only" areas for dogs and kids to run around and play on.
Lots of families having picnics at the picnic shelters along the beach. There is a large playground and two bathroom facilities. Used the facilities on the north end of the park, which were clean. All in all, lovely beach!
