What Is It Known For?
Amazing beach access, great big views of the Puget Sound and the shores of Ballard.
The seagrass rustles and fidgets in the wind as our feet clop on the raised boardwalk that winds through the sandy tidelands. Visitors gather in clumps a few hundred feet from each other, the 1,400+ feet of shoreline never feels remotely full. The boardwalk ends and the jumbled maze of driftwood begins.
the best beach walk
As far as waterfront shoreline access on Bainbridge Island, Fay is the way. There is no better park to walk in the surf, scamper across washed up logs or picnic in the sun. Fay is great for a quick escape or an overnight adventure and one of Bainbridge Island’s favorite parks!
