Jetty Island


Fun little island a short ferry ride from Everett! The sea is very shallow here for miles so the water is nice and warm for wading and soaking in. The sand is clean, not very muddy, with a prolific amount of wildlife. We found clams, shrimp, we saw all kinds of birds, algae, seaweed, worms, crabs . . . The kids had a blast splashing, digging, chasing birds and Sammy helped Leela dress up like a mermaid with Seaweed. We found if you sand still long enough, you start to sink. Dave got up nearly to his knees before he chicken out. As you can see, we came at low tide. We'd like to come back at high tide when the swimming will be better.
