I love visiting and exploring this park.There are 3 entrances to the park and 3 parking area’s in the park.Bathrooms are far from beach.Speed limit is not always obeyed in the park so be cautious and aware.You definitely get your steps in to get onto the beach but well worth the hike.Bonus: Incorporating various neighborhood walks as well as mastering the many hills in and around the park.Note: The public restrooms are not open during the pandemic.Detour idea: On nice days when the tide is out you can walk to Harbourview park and Mukilteo lighthouse park which is closer via the beach route. But due be aware of the changing tide.Intention: Made many family memories here.Great park for everyone including the dogs!!Photos are in Howarth park and adjacent neighborhood’s.Seasonal: you can pick blackberries,rose hips and tender nettles along with some amazing views!!Great sunrise and sunsets.Meditate: on Jesus is what I love to do while enjoying this park.My hope is that you will too!!Isaiah 30:21 NIV[21] Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”Psalm 37:4Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.Love this park all four seasons and year round.#Gods#creation#blessed. #Jesus-thank you!!

Another hidden but not hidden gem. Bonus since the port is there you might even see a tug boat at work! Oh and dont forget your front log seat to the trains coming and going. A nice place to escape the end of thw world.

Nice spot to dip your toes in the water. The portion of the park that connects to an off leash dog park on Puget Sound. Would have been 5 star, but some did not pick up after their dogs and our picnic on the beach was visited by an offleash pup that put his nose in our coleslaw. Enjoyed the sunset! View of Mount Baker was amazing too!

First time visiting this park. Its small, right on the water, and quiet considering its proximity to town. I saw 2 trains go by during the 3 hours I was there. They have a neat circle staircase that goes down 3 stories to get to the beach, with viewing platforms on each level. There is also a playground but i didnt check it out. Definitely worth visiting if you are in the area

Howarth Park has gorgeous views of a large greenbelt and the Puget Sound. Though you cannot actually get to the water or beach from it. It boasts rolling hills and fields covered in daisies, and dedicated benches throughout. There are lots of beautiful, old-growth trees and shady areas for picnicking.It features 2 playgrounds. But there arent any swings, aside from 2 baby swings. There are some great playground spinners and ride-on toys.The parking situation is difficult. It has maybe 20 spots for the entire large park. On sunny days you may have to wait in your car until someone leaves, or park on a far away side street and walk. Still, its a lovely park that enriches the local community, so it gets 5 stars from me.

Not worth go there on purpose, but i feel its a good stopby place if you are nearby. didnt see a limited area for dog, but i see people basically offleash their dog when they arrive the seashore. the place is a narrowed beach.

Great dog park, small parking area, but the open dog park was great and had beautiful views. It was not overly crowded, which was nice. Note, this park does not have any trash bins.

Most beautiful place around

Had a fun time with my granddaughter here. We looked for little crabs under the rocks. Kind of confusing parking areas but the park / beach was fun. If you have trouble walking stairs you want to park in the upper parking.

I love it here! Offleash area for dogs and perfect sand and driftwood places to sit. My dogs are always amazed.

The only thing is sketchy parking lot, but its a pretty cool place. Absolutely beautiful and tons of fun for dogs and dog lovers/ owners.

Nice sandy beach. The trains were really quiet when the went by. Saw some wildlife too! Only downside was the walk back up to the parking lot. Highly recommend!!

Small park with a picnic area that overlooks the sound. Trail leads down to the saltwater beach which didnt really hold much interest to us but would be a nice place to relax with the gorgeous view or let the kids look under the rocks for sea life.

First time to the park. Went exploring. On the way to the beach you have to climb stairs to cross the train tracks. Nice beautiful beach. The only thing there were no restrooms or trash cans that I saw. Saw someones dog pop bag left on a post in front of the map.

Coming here since 2015 best local swimming/sunbathing spot full of fluff monsters. (Dog park) beware, limited parking

This is a amazing place to hang low key and talk to a friend or read a book.There is free parking in the park. From there, there is a tiny walk and stair climb to reach the actual view point and the beach.The view point is a shed like structure, double decker, with spiral staircase and over looks the water. its an open area, and if one brings some chair, they can sit there as well.There are logs all over the beach, so thats an option to sit and relax as well.Over all, its an amazing place , aesthetically pleasing . There is even a railway track !!

The creek walks super cool the back up a trail over railroad pedestrian bridge is the beach theres a few sets of stairs

I confused swimming dogs for sea lions.. besides that it was epic

Love this park, quiet, peaceful, yet friendly. Fun on a hot summer day but it gets pretty crowded at times.

Great views,sand, skipping rocks, and grass to picnic on in August. Train conductors wave back at you. Two playgrounds. Old and new.

Such a sweet like secret pocket of nature !

Beach is great. Nice cute little walks through the trees to get there. Prepare for stairs. Stairs up to a bridge to cross the railroad tracks and stairs down to the beach lol. So travel light or bring help. Its nice to watch the trains go by well soaking up some sun. The kids enjoy the trains as well as the water. Patrons tend to keep the beach up fairly well so do your part ️. Parking access is limited but very accessable. Drove everything from my slammed golf to my Denali down there. No problems getting down or out.

Love this park i just wish the trees were a little shorter so you could see the sound better. But its still a fav.

Really cool place, nice off leash dog area.

Beautiful park please open up the restrooms. There are Empty beds in the hospitals on the front lines. Why are we paying taxes on a park where we can only have use it? The virus has a 97% recovery rate. Im sick of not being able to go to church, park, or this whole nonsense over an overblown flu at election time!

Great beach front. A little bit sketchy environment but very nice view.

Cause it was so beautiful & surreal. I love how there is the beach & then u walk a few feet & ur surrounded by trees.

Had a lot of fun at Howarth Park. The beach wasnt too crowded and our little pup had a great time playing with the water. I wish it would have been cleaned up a little more though.

Beautiful park. Only saw small part of it but i will definitely return.

Very nice secluded beach. Nice trail at the bottom parking lot that leads you to a bridge over train tracks and to a really nice beach on the Puget Sound

I walked from Everett, WA to here and it was wonderful! Then I walked the train track to the military base where they have amazing ships docked. Its a closed base, of course, so I looked from afar. My nephew is a veteran for the U.S.A. navy so hes been close up, but I have not been. Its very beautiful to see from the beach though. Occasionally, you can spot their sea otters swimming. I may go again today!!!

Best dog friendly off leash park. My dog knows when I say the name where we are going. That sums it up in a nutshell...

Great little dog park on the beach!

Its a great look out point park. Great views of the sound.

Not the prettiest beach I have been to but gets the job done for beach trip. There was alot of people and off the leash dogs. If you are concerned about covid, no one was wearing masks.

Great little park with access to the beach. There are 2 parking lots with a small trail connecting them. Also has a nice lookout point from one of the parking areas. You have to go down a few flights of stairs to reach the beach but it’s worth it. If you visit during low tide you can walk along the train tracks pretty far!Never a lot of people there it’s dog friendly too so bring your little ones.

By far one of my favorite places to get away too.... especially early morning and at sunset

Great place to bring your dog off leash and enjoy the water.

I love looking at the sunset here. Amazing view

This is a very beautiful spot. They have a nice area for kids. Public restrooms which is very nice, and a crazy view off the side of a cliff that’s a park. On a sunny day it’s absolutely gorgeous here. You wouldn’t believe how nice the views are here, during sunset.

These photos are from the lowest tide of the year! A TERRIBLE off leash park unless the tide is out and then youre still mixed in with people who dont want a dog coming up to them off leash. The technical off leash spot is this tiny extremely overgrown fenced in (somewhat) area that pretty much opens up straight to the train tracks that have frequent trains. People kind of let their dogs off leash near that area but it doesnt work too well.

This place has something special in the air. It is thrilling and breathtaking. The beauty it holds keeps your eyes moving. My pictures won’t do it justice. But I hope they help.

This was a random stop for me. The park was very quiet. I only saw 2 people and a dog. There were two parking areas one with a view and a picnic table the other road had a parking area and after climbing some stairs lead to the beach.

Nice beach for kids to run around and get some time in the water.

Its a nice little spot on the water, but there are too many ways to end up on the train tracks, the dog side especially, be careful. Great spot.

Beautiful view, dog friendly not too crowded

The best absolutely the best part Ive ever been to

Such a nice little hide away

If you can’t find parking in the upper section, there’s plenty down below. It’s such a beautiful, well maintained park. There’s plenty of room for dogs to run around.

Beautiful! Various parking areas, a nice path with stairs to the beach and a platform that was perfect for pictures. There is a playarea and bathrooms at the top, then a dog park off of the beach that is not fenced. We ran on leash with all of the normal dogs that listen and still had a blast! The dog park has a creek that the dogs would drink from, but no running faucets (that I found) at the beach, just the bathrooms at the upper park.

Awesome view of sunset and the water and islands.

Very peaceful, surprisingly secluded given how close it is to downtown Everett!

Peaceful and relaxing beach. Great for weekend picnic with friends.

There are bathrooms around the park areas but there is also a passage to go the beach. There are stairs that take you down to the beach.not much of a walking space. I believe because of the season the water came closer and made less access for walking other then that there is a bit space if not full to set up to watch the sunset or take your pet for an outing. Fun for family and couples. Good for photography as well. Such a beautiful place. Did I mention the purple seashells.

Nice park with a nice dog beach. Certain times the parking is limited. But dont stay parked too late past sunset. Youll get locked in till sunrise! We take the truck now just incase.

Great place for the dogs and to relax on a nice sunny day

Fun place to take the sites in and relax.

Relaxing place to stop for lunch or spend the day with family.

Would be 4 stars with better parking. Amazing view!

Super cool dog beach especially given the location. Apparently it was significantly upgraded last year and is wonderful for dogs on one side and humans on the other. Watch for low tide as the beach size varies a lot.

Nice beach, not to bad of a walk to get there.

Nice beach with great views of the sound, the islands, and babes in bikinis

Beautiful, clean and felt amazing to get outside

Kinda just went to the beach area. The bridge to get to the stairs to get to the bridge that crosses the tracks was a little run down and felt like my foot could bust through at any moment. The bridge crossing the tracks was a cool structure but also run down. Felt sturdy though. The view from the beach was gorgeous with the sun setting. Did visit the rest of the park but Ill definitely wouldnt mind wondering around more.

Really good place to go also you can walk down to the beach from the location. Very fun

This is where we spend time with each other and go clamming and look for geo duck. I had so much fun with my family its great memories made every visit!

Excellent park. Good play area and amazing beach access.

Definitely one of our favorite parks. Next to the ocean/beach!

Been coming here since I was a child now I bring my niece and nephews here to add to the great memories

A nice park to go to and by the water.Good parkingEasy access to the park.Easy to walk down to the beach.

Pretty easy to access the beach from this park. Love coming here! Only complaint is its not wheelchair accessible because of lots of stairs. Anyone who doesnt mind big flights of stairs would like to exercise here. Theres definitely lots of beach to explore.Gated bridge to the beach means you can watch trains pass from above. The breezeway over the railroad tracks offers great views and ensures no trespassing on railroad property to get to the beach.Being able to walk along the beach beats Harbourview park(down the road, only offers beach views and picnic tables).At the bottom of the hill theres a good size parking lot. Theres a large path and stairs that lead up the hill to a park with kids playground equipment.

Great park to take the kids and dogs. Love the views of the sound.

Nice place to enjoy the scenery.

Nice beach to walk up and down, surprisingly uncrowded when I visited

Kind of packed so we left early. Beatiful park though!

Howarth Park is absolutely beautiful and is a lot of fun for dogs and dog lovers & owners.

Really nice view and nice and cold waters looks nice and pretty good to swim in

Fun even in the snow. 2/9/19

Great for taking your dog to the beach. Its a small area but a nice place for a quick view and fresh air

Absolutely love this place . But not as much as my dog . Great beaches and a good place to find seaglass

Love this beach, but its been getting a bid crowded so parking is hard. It is right by active tracks so you have to be really careful when you bring your dog.

Nice park with old trees and a great view.

Very clean beach! Very well behaved owners! Nice to have this so close to home!

Nice play ground. Cute little trail to get to the water that has a bridge over a train that doesnt come very often and a nice rocky beach.

Landscape always changes. Majestic place.

Nice little walk through the woods, over the railroad tracks to the beach.

My favorite place to take the dogs off leash! Beautiful beach, not very many people unless its a sunny weekend. Trains run by regularly. Lots of logs to sit on or you can walk the beach. 4 story spiral staircase gets you down to the beach from bridge over the train tracks. High car prowl area though. I got my window smashed out once a few years ago so now I leave my truck unlocked and havent had any issues.

Great beach in Everett. Nice sand close to the water and close to the top of the beach, but there is a 10 ft band of large pebbles that spans a good length of the beach that you have to walk over depending on the tide and where you put your blanket.The water in July wasnt too cold and the beach was not very crowded. Just make sure you drive all the way down to the bottom parking lot. Then you have to climb a lot of stairs to cross the bridge over the train tracks, then climb back down the tower to the beach on the other side.

Nice park with great beachfront. I know theres a playground section and a beach section so make sure youre in the right area for the beach or playground. Though there is a trail between the two that should be obvious in the playground section.

First visit since they redid the park. Nice beach, easy access. Looks like a great place to take dogs as there were lots there.

This place is very pretty and well kept very small park so if you going for a walk would not recommend but if you have small children this is a must to see.

Small mainly a walk to the shore. Not much sand area mainly logs

Nice easy walk from the parking area. The dog area is convenient and fun for my fur-beast.

This my profile picture was taken in this park. Its a kind of a place that you can take amazing pictures and set as a background photo in your computer.

Great place to spent the day. Seashore, park, playground, train, have a picnic, nice views

Cool little park when you find the beach access parking. Very unique beach access and a cool little bridge and spiral staircase tower to get there. The beach itself is nothing real special, but the short walk and the spiral tower stairs are just cool and not something youre likely to find elsewhere.

I love this park so beautiful n family oriented.

Overall nice beach, be careful of the sand near the waterline though, sank in up time knees in a matter of seconds Update, sunk in twice.

I always have fun when I go and it’s beautiful there

Really nice beach area
