Harbour view of Bellingham Bay from Boulevard Park
Tucked below South Hill, Boulevard Park presents the opportunity to enjoy the Bellingham Bay waterfront. However, don't expect sandy beaches and a boat launch -- Boulevard Park has an abrupt, rocky shoreline that protects it from being reclaimed by the sea. This beautiful park bears little resemblance to its industrial history -- if you look closely you can see pilings which were used around the turn of the century for docks, canneries and lumber mills. The park also consists of a strip along the bluff above the main park (accessible by a staircase tower) which provides a good place to watch the sunset.
