Driftwood Shelter on Puget Sound, Fay Bainbridge Park - Trip #19

Puget Sound beaches are often the home to driftwood. Creative beachcombers often build driftwood shelters and art such as the one below. Some stay up for several seasons, a great place to watch storms in winter. 

Fay Bainbridge Park, Bainbridge Island, WA

Fay Bainbridge below is a four mile paddle from Seattle and easily accessible by Winslow Harbor to the south and Kingston from the north.  A Cascadia Marine Trails campsite offers an overnight option in the park.  Summer can be quite busy on busy weekends, best to visit weekdays or off season.
