Owen Beach

📍 Tacoma, Washington

You round the bend and see shimmering water framed by dancing evergreens. The soft sand beneath your feet whispers the stories of the Puyallup people, waiting for you to listen.

This tiny, overlooked gem in Point Defiance Park includes sandy shores with unique views of the Tacoma Narrows and educational opportunities about the Puyallup tribe’s connection to the landscape. A lovely spot for a picnic, stroll, or swim—where nature and culture beautifully intersect.

Explorer Tip

Visit during sunset for breathtaking views.
