Denny Blaine Park

So quiet and peaceful! You’d never know you’re in the middle of a city! The park is beautiful! The landscaping is pleasing to the eye! I didn’t notice nudity though! There were a large number of kids!

Best beach around cause I can get naked without any issues. I’ve stood naked and talked to a female police officer about the parking situation without problems. And oh, there are about eight parking spaces available. Consequently you’ll have to park down the road somewhere and walk. That’s the biggest drawback to this place is the parking. Also, there are not any bathrooms around and the shore is gravel. But again, there are naked people around me and that is all that matters.

Busy, hot Tuesday, plenty of people soaking up the sun in the nude, yet no cranking of any hogs or general sexual indecency... funny that. Lots of clothed people too including myself. The north part has super silky sand, but gets weedy pretty quick. Excellent for floaties. The parking is atrocious though. There's max 10 spots at the actual park and very limited street parking around it. I was extremely lucky to get a spot close by. Plan on biking, walking or taking transit.

This is a cute lakefront park at the turn of Lake Washington Blvd and overlooks Bellevue and the Cascades. I would have given it one more star if I didn't notice the two tents on the lower level of the park. Also when I passed by around 6:30am, someone was loitering in the park, not sure what he was doing but definitely not enjoying the great view in front of him.

Small, super-chill beach. When I went on a hot day, all levels of the park were loaded with naked people. Vast majority of the crowd fully nude, a few topless, small minority of fully suited users. Everyone very respectful and considerate. Minimal facilities, just trash cans and a Porta Potty. Great beach for wading/swimming. Plenty of places on the grass and sand to lay out. Moderate shade, with more by mid-afternoon.

Gorgeous, peaceful, natural sunrise spot.

I usually stop by here on my e-bike rides—been coming here every summer since the pandemic lockdown days when I finally had more time to cruise around Seattle on my bike and long range e-scooter. This park has always been known as one of those "unofficial clothing-optional" beaches for many, many decades, so don’t expect your typical family beach park vibes. That said, it’s a unique little spot with a lot of history behind it. Recently there’s been some commotion with newer crowds and folks moving into the area, so the atmosphere can feel a bit different than before. Personally I’ve never had an issue—I just enjoy the ride, the sun, and the quiet little escape in the city. Just know what you’re walking into and you’ll appreciate it for what it is.
