Things to do in Everett, Washington (WA): The Best Nature & Parks

February 16, 2022 Velvet Champine

Birthplace of Boeing airplanes, Everett is a lively coastal city just north of Seattle. Its waterfront, once a highly industrialized area home to a naval base and large paper mill, has recently undergone a transformative redevelopment as a locale for seaside shopping, dining and festivities. The city's numerous parks, boasting free live concerts every summer, are excellent for hiking or relaxing, while the coast is a popular spot for sailing, water sports and whale watching excursions.

We enjoyed our walk along the Everett Marina, all the way to the boat ramp, where the ferry to Hat Island was embarking. Lots of different boats are moored there, Several restaurants had outdoor tables, we'll have to consider going to one next time we're in town. You can see Jetty Island; there were many boats enjoying the brisk breeze.

Howarth Park

Reviewed By SheriT963 - Everett, United States

Nice park tucked back into a neighborhood. Walking bridge takes you over the train tracks to a great stretch of beach. Perfect for a long walk! Great view! The best thing (for us =) is that the north side of the beach is a dog park.

Jetty Island

Wiggle your toes in the warm sand, play in the water and explore the nature trails of Everett's two-mile scenic gem. From July into September, the City of Everett runs a free ferry to this sandy beach. Jetty Island Days is a cooperative program between the Port of Everett and Everett Parks & Community Services.

This is a beautiful place to go for a day. You can catch crabs, feed the birds, and enjoy the ocean.

Grand Avenue Park

Reviewed By dianebS2450BE - Edmonds, United States

This park is above the railroad yard but the noise is not noticed as the views are stunning. There are places to sit and a tribute to Scoop Jackson who lived across the street. The houses across the street are as stunning as the view. There is no public restrooms but the architecture of the homes are wonderful. They recently completed an iconic walkway that goes over the state highway and puts you down by Lombardi’s Italian Restaurant.

There is a paved section of the trail, a gravel section, and a dirt section. You can travel a mile or up to 3 miles depending on which route you choose. It's quiet, you'll see and hear wildlife as well as see close up the terrain you drive by on I-5. Walk of bike.

Evergreen Arboretum & Gardens

Reviewed By simivalley1699

What a joy to see the gardens all decorated with thousands of lights! The paths are well lit, wide enough for roll chairs and walkers. A lovely event for families of all ages. Everybody was wearing masks, and there was JOY all around! We even saw friends having a tailgate party in the parking lot, all well distanced.
