Point No Point

We went to Point No Point and walked along the beach, great views of Cascade Peaks across Puget Sound. From the parking area we hike about 3 miles round trip.

Point No Point Beach Hike

We went up to the Point No Point Lighthouse Park in Hansville,  for a nice beach walk today. This is the oldest lighthouse on Puget Sound.


 Other side of the lighthouse:
There is a nice stretch of beach

Looking across Puget Sound to the east, we could see the snow capped North Cascades.
We walked about 1-1/2 miles down the beach.














Far to the southeast, we could see downtown Seattle and Mt Rainier








a few of the shorebirds we saw today:



 There is a nice marsh on the southwest side of the lighthouse








We saw several blue herons and ducks here.
