Enatai Beach Park

Enatai Beach Park is a 3-acre waterfront park located on the eastern shore of Lake Washington in Bellevue, Washington. The park serves as a gateway to Lake Washington and the water trails of the nearby Mercer Slough Nature Park.

Situated partially under the I-90 bridge, Enatai Beach Park offers visitors scenic views of Lake Washington, surrounding hills, and on clear days, Mount Rainier. The park features a small sandy beach with a designated swimming area that is staffed by lifeguards during summer months.

A key attraction of the park is its boathouse, which provides seasonal rentals of canoes, kayaks, and stand-up paddleboards. These watercraft allow visitors to explore the lake and nearby Mercer Slough Nature Park, offering opportunities to observe local wildlife such as great blue herons, green herons, bald eagles, beavers, and muskrats.

The park includes a spacious patio overlooking the lake, providing an ideal spot for picnics or simply enjoying the view. There is also a large grassy area suitable for various recreational activities. For fishing enthusiasts, the park offers a fishing dock.

Enatai Beach Park serves as a year-round launch site for non-motorized watercraft, making it a popular destination for water sports enthusiasts. The park's location and amenities make it an excellent venue for both active recreation and peaceful relaxation in a natural setting close to urban areas.
