Dash Point Park is 2.77 acres. Because it is located in a residential area, we encourage all park users to carpool and park only in designated parking spaces. Please do not block residential driveways or park illegally.
With a long pier and sandy shore, Dash Point Park is one of the nicest and most accessible paddling locations in Tacoma. From the park you can paddle south to see the Browns Point Lighthouse and Commencement Bay, or north to Dash Point State Park. With a west-facing shoreline, the area also offers some of the best sunset views in the city.
