May we say, modestly, that Sandpoint City Beach is simply one of the finest city parks anywhere?
With magnificent views down Lake Pend Oreille, enjoy swimming and beach lounging. Play volleyball on one of the three sand courts, tennis or pickleball on the pair of recently upgraded courts; throw some horseshoes or get in on a pickup basketball game; or let the youngest ones loose on the kids’ playground. Public boat launch, picnic tables, barbecue sites, a pavilion available by reservation for group use are other amenities. The Windbag Marina and city-owned Sand Creek Marina are immediately adjacent. But best of all are the beautiful sandy beaches and broad grassy lawns that ring the park.
The park is an easy two-block stroll from downtown, off Bridge Street.
