With some great day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy everything that North Beach, 40 miles away, has to offer. Cascade Lake, Moran State Park and Sucia Island State Park alone make the drive out worth it. Possession Point is another great option. It’s 20 miles away and offers a variety of awesome things to do. Boeing Everett Factory, Mukilteo Lighthouse Park and Future of Flight are only the start.
