In Ballard • August 31, 2011This is the best beach in Seattle- make sure you walk to the far north end of the park for great views of the Sound

Regan C. • June 26, 2010Take a run from Cormorant Cove through Alki Beach, cut back up California Way, stretch and enjoy the view at Hamilton Park, then retrace your steps on the way back!

Jason S. • February 16, 2015Walk the loop! It's got great views. If you don't have a dog with you, head downtown one of the beaches - it's gorgeous, and the trip adds about 30 flights of stairs to your excursion.

Tom L. • October 24, 2011Check the tide schedule. Awesome beach combing at low tide.

Elie K. • July 25, 2010The little stretch just south of the parking lot is nicer than the designated beach: the lawn is larger, there is a dock you can dive off, and there are no lifeguards to yell at you.

Maria N. • April 27, 2016Good place to take a walk or picnic on the beaches. The hiking trails on top are worth the walk. Clean but can be unsafe at night.

Bensen • May 26, 2013Follow Alki around the bend to Beach Drive SW. My favorite view from West Seattle. Keep driving and it will take you to Lincoln Park.

Katy I. • January 13, 2022Nice steps to sit on, good spot for a picnic, beautiful water views, but it does get crowded on a nice day and the free parking at the Expedia garage seems to have closed :(

Gaston M. • July 28, 2018Pretty horrible beach, but it makes for a good hike if you come to that beach from the park. Also there's a train going by every freaking 10 mins.

James W. • November 12, 2013If you are able to take your eyes off the gorgeous views of the Sound and Olympic Mountains, you may see actual cormorants or even sea otters around this area.
