Blake Island

This is a marine state park accessible only by boat - which adds to the adventure of this special attraction. It is a popular hiking and clamming destination, with nature trails and beach walks. The park preserves the birthplace of Chief Sealth and is the site of Tillicum Village, where North Coast tribal heritage is shared with visitors in an authentic cedar longhouse with traditional salmon bakes and native dances. Visit via tour boats that depart from piers 55 and 56 on the Seattle waterfront.
