Description:
Beer Sheva Park is a small, but very cozy park located in the southeastern part of Seattle. It’s a perfect place to enjoy the views of Lake Washington, Mercer Island and the Cascade Mountains.
Once known as Atlantic City Park, the park was renamed in honor of Seattle’s International Sister Cities in Israel in 1978.
The little park is a real Seattle’s gem. There are comfortable picnic tables, spacious parking lot near the boat ramp, a beautifully constructed playground and a nice area for bicycling.
The playground has different equipment for the kids of different ages. Younger kids will enjoy the areas for climbing, swings and a nice small sand area. A wall for advanced climbers with monkey bars will be of great value to the older kids.
Near the playground there is a cement area for bicyclers. There are also cozy benches near the area and around the playground.
It’s good to realize that the park is pesticide free, so the kids can enjoy freedom in the full sense of the word.
Beer Sheva Park is very popular in summer. Come here, sit, stretch your legs and enjoy your picnic and perfect sunset.
