Shoreline park on Mercer Island with a boardwalk, sandy beach, pier and open lawns that frame Lake Washington, Seattle skyline and — on clear days — Mount Rainier. Ideal for golden-hour and sunset compositions, reflections and long-exposure water shots. Free public access, pay parking at the lot; weekdays and early mornings are least crowded. Paths and piers are wheelchair-accessible; watch for seasonal light and ferry traffic that can add interest.
