 North Bay has
a new water park
By Danna Webster, KP News
The North Bay Kayak Park is located on the water side
of State Route 3, just past Allyn, before Sherwood Creek
Bridge. This area was a swimming hole many years ago. It
recently received an extreme makeover and cleanup, and now
offers a sandy beach, a kayak launch, an ADA-approved
path, and has an ADA accessible restroom. The park, which
celebrated its grand opening in May, will be open most of
the year.
“[It’s] kind of great to bring it back, full circle, to
the public again,” said Bonnie Knight, executive director
of the Port of Allyn.
Allyn resident Sara Germaine walked to the park with
her 19-month-old daughter, Ruby, in a stroller.
“(I’m) really glad that this park is here,” Germaine
told Knight. “I’ll bring my kids down to build sand
castles…I can’t thank you enough.”
