Adjoining Alki Elementary and the community center, this West Seattle park pairs a play area designed to be accessible to children with disabilities with a sand play area and the beloved Whale Tail sculpture, with structures aimed at ages 1-6 and 5-10. A full play area rebuild is underway, with the new playground set to open alongside the school in fall 2026.
