Living Next to Point Defiance

Point Defiance is a truly unique park, and Tacoma is fortunate to have such a fabulous attraction right in its backyard! Point Defiance Park is a 760-acre park that features a sprawling forest, beaches that stretch on for miles (Owen’s Beach is a favorite!), and more. The Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium and Fort Nisqually Living History Museum are both fun places to bring young ones and out-of-towners, and the waterfront, marina, Ruston Way Trail, 5-mile drive, off-leash park, and botanical gardens all offer scenic opportunities to stay active and get outdoors.
