Beautiful fun place on Mothers Day weekend to venture. Wooden boat show type stuff. Elephant ears. Some years have been great. Bums have be meandering and begging. Kinda of a Debbie downer when trying to enjoy young family fun. We have all that green grass in front of the Capitol campus we should allow them to build their tent cities there.

This place is so beautiful! They have a cute park area for your children to play with really fun toys on there jungle gym, they have a beautiful picnic area for the family. They also provide public restrooms that are always very clean and well stocked with sinks and soap as well. They have showers that are available at certain times as well which I think is very awesome off them to provide that. The water front is beautiful, they have a marina there for your boats if you have any, lots of grass to sun tan in. Lots of FREE parking, a welcome center and much much more . I absolutely love this place I absolutely plan on returning in my near future and I highly recommend stopping by for a visit. Family friends and kid friendly! ★★★★★

Went to the farmers market and then walked over to the play ground with my 2 and a half year old neice and we had a super fun time. Really like the toys for all ages and that they have restrooms. We had such a good time that my neice cried when we had to leave. We also met and talked to several nice people with their kiddos. Nice to have such a beautiful place to spend an afternoon especially with covid stuff going on. Great job on whoever planned that park.

I enjoyed this beautiful Park on the waterfront on this gorgeous Blue Sky morning., so much scenery to take in. The Olympic mountains, several first class marinas, and of course, the Capitol building.The local eateries cannot be beat. Its a beautiful thing that Olympia can preserve its small town atmosphere. Enjoy.

Ive seen a lot of marine locations, trying to find a fresh beach. Ive seen a lot of normal on every surf. This town has a lot to offer. Rent a paddle board, see the capital, find some company who likes an IPA, or new music!!!

Easy to find, access, and exit from multiple points. The boardwalk is due for more maintenance, but otherwise fully handicapped accessable as is. There is a small playground adjacent to the public restroom which also includes shower facilities for the marina.

What an awesome surprise find this was! Just staying overnight in Olympia but went for an even walk along what looked like might be a waterfront area. Heard some great sounding tunes in the distance and as we walked along the lovely boardwalk toward the music, we came upon a fantastic outdoor concert!

Clean grounds, beautiful colors and spaces, well-balanced use of durable materials and safety. The restrooms were clean and accessible (Summer time) and the harbor was teeming with life. The Oyster Bar has great reviews so give it a try.

Downtown Olympia is blessed with an extensive boardwalk along the waterfront with restrooms, a small but elegant meeting space, a childrens playground and a play field - all a part of this beautiful park! Several excellent restaurants and a nice pub are along the perimeter as well. ...and public docks for visiting boaters, too. Sail on over!

I come to Olympia about once a month, and this was the first time I made time to come to the waterfront. Im glad I did, and if you come, you will enjoy a nice walk, stunning views of the water (I bet its even better with better weather), and that marvelous feel of being by the sea. So many boats moored here, I got some great pictures. Ill come back, for sure.

Water was so black and still, I imagined being able to walk as far away as the eye could see.....if only we could live our imagination and think about reality, vs. living reality and thinking out imagination. *Hint, go at night its quiet and relaxing

A beautiful park with something for everyone. Swinging, climbing, spinning, you can do it all. Watch the boats, see the capital, look for fish, sunbathe, play lawn games, and enjoy the surroundings. So many fun things happen here and its a great park in all seasons. Easily accessible bathrooms make this a great park for families!

This park includes a fun, innovative playground (with a swing that seats both infant and parent), a gorgeous view of the water, and delicious eateries nearby. We brought our pastries from Bread Peddler and walked the boardwalk alongside families, singles, and couples alike. My son met a new friend here, with whom we exchanged contact info and enjoyed subsequent playdates.

Percival had to be the most poggers place in Olympia to play Pokemon Go! So many nerdz come here that it looks like a protest! And its not a genuine downtown Olympia experience without the occasional homeless person and or someone doing loads of drugs! I love this place! 5/5 stars my dude.

Walking along the waterfront here is a must on any trip to Olympia. On weekends this is a nice walk up to the farmers market from a downtown breakfast joint. It can be combined with the Capital Lake Loop for a longer stroll. This park has a nice playground as well.

Saw Lady Washington ship today and walked around to the different venders and farmer market. Listened to live music and they had free parking but you do have to walk a block or two to get to the event. There are a few bathrooms scattered around.
