About This Beach
Rockaway Beach is a small, rocky beach park on Bainbridge Island offering spectacular views of the Seattle skyline across Elliott Bay. Limited parking and a lack of amenities contribute to its secluded, quiet atmosphere, which is popular with divers and those seeking a peaceful escape with nature. Despite the rocky terrain, the beach offers opportunities for exploring tide pools and enjoying the unique beauty of the area.
