Beach Exploration for Family and Friends

Bainbridge Island Beach Naturalists are planning our first nighttime low-tide beach exploration in several years. It can be a different world on the beach after dark. Come join us as we check it out, Friday, January 10, 7:30 – 8:30pm at the BI Ferry Terminal Beach.

To get to the beach, take the Waterfront Park trail, cross the ravine bridge, continue on the Waterfront trail straight across Harborview Drive. Either way, look for the sandwich board which will direct you to the beach access. Beach naturalists will be identifiable by their bright vests. Come join in. Hope to see you there.

Preparation:

• Bring a flashlight to get to the destination.
• This is a great family event, but please do not bring your dog.
• We suggest wearing shoes or boots that can get muddy and wet because we will be walking in muddy, rocky areas, as well as shallow water.
• Put on rain gear as the weather dictates.
• Cobblestones and seaweed can make footing challenging for some. If that’s you bring your walking support.

Parking and Directions:

Parking is easiest and free in downtown Winslow.  Head to Waterfront Park and take the trail to the ravine bridge. After crossing the bridge, continue on to Harborview Drive. Cross the street and look for the sandwich board, which will direct you to the beach access.  Or you can use any of the ferry terminal paid lots which are close and walk to Harborview Drive, which is the street at the stoplight at the top of the ferry waiting zone. Walk down the street and turn left at the sandwich board, which will direct you to the beach access. Beach naturalists will be identifiable by their bright vests. Come join in. Hope to see you there.
