Mukilteo State Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mukilteo State Park is an unofficial state park that encompasses the lighthouse at the west end of the city of Mukilteo, Washington and 14.4 acres (0.058 km²) south of it. The property is west and south of the Washington State Ferries terminal with ferry service to Whidbey Island and is crossed by the Burlington Northern Mainline. The island, which is easily visible from the shore, lies across a narrow portion of Possession Sound.

This park is now known as Mukilteo Lighthouse Park. The former Washington State Park was deeded to the City in 2003. In 2004, the City adopted a Lighthouse Park Master Plan to make physical improvements to the approximately site. Phase I of the Plan is scheduled to begin in October 2007.

Mukilteo State Park has about 1,500 feet (460 m) of sandy beach and includes a public boat launch, lighthouse and dock. This is one of the most easily accessed shorelines in urban Snohomish County.
