Sand Point, Seattle

Sand Point is a neighborhood in Seattle, Washington, United States, named after and consisting mostly of the Sand Point peninsula that juts into Lake Washington, which is itself largely given over to Magnuson Park.

The western limit of the neighborhood, beyond which are View Ridge and Wedgwood, is not fixed and can be said to be anywhere up the hill that extends west from Sand Point Way N.E.

Sand Point Airfield was the endpoint of the first aerial circumnavigation of the world in 1924.

The historic flight helped convince Congress to develop Sand Point as a naval air station.

This region experiences warm (but not hot) and dry summers, with no average monthly temperatures above 71.6 °F.
