Locust Beach
Locust AvenueBeautiful sunset destination. Feels secret and secluded. Highly romantic. Bikeable.
This is such a great beach and trail between downtown Bellingham and Fairhaven. Incredible at all hours, particularly for sunset walks. If it is raining, try Woods Coffee located right on the water.

At this point, you probably don't need more hiking options, but this still bears mentioning. A short beautiful hike to a wooden tower where you can view the bay and the cascades. If you have more time, there are tons of trails that criss-cross the arboretum and lead down into the beautiful campus of Western Washington University.

This is like Seattle's Greenlake on steroids. Beautiful forested hiking/running trails. Fishing/boating options. Swimming beaches. Gateway to some seriously awesome mountainbiking too.

The cleanest, purest swimming I have ever found in an urban area. This is Bellingham's water supply, and you can swim in it! Excellent boating options and the start of the Railroad Trail which is a superb running trail.

Premium hiking. Chuckanut Drive is like Big Sur in California, steep forested cliffs overlooking the glistening water of the Puget Sound. Even just the drive south on Chuckanut Drive into the Skagit Valley is totally worth it.
