Category Overview
Washington is famous for its gorgeous and abundant waterways, from the Salish Sea to the Nisqually River, but many communities lack open public beaches and waterfronts where everyone can enjoy picnicking, swimming, paddling, boating, and angling. Water Access projects fund public shoreline access, boat launches, and fishing docks to create more opportunities for water recreation.
Project Highlights
City of Bellingham purchased approximately 32 acres in a linear corridor, much of which is wetland, to provide a key link in its ten-mile interurban trail between downtown Bellingham and Larrabee State Park.
