Carrie Blake Playground

If you’re passing through Sequim on Highway 101, this park is genuinely worth the detour. The equipment covers a solid range — sandbox and baby swings for the little ones, plus climbing structures and slides that’ll keep older kids busy long enough for you to actually sit down. Shade trees make the difference on a sunny afternoon, and the restrooms and parking situation are both solid, which matters more than people admit. There’s a walking path looping through, and the skate park and pickleball courts nearby mean the trip works even if you’ve got kids at different ages pulling you in different directions.
