Scene on the Sound: Minus 4.1 low tide at the Edmonds waterfront

Another low tide on Wednesday, May 28, 2025 combined with the warmest day of the year so far brought out everyone who had time off to enjoy it.

And that included several of our photographers.

The Edmonds waterfront was full of families enjoying the day.

Some of the ferry runs were cancelled but not on the Kingston-Edmonds run. Either there is an abrupt drop off at the end of the pier or our ferries have a very shallow draught.

Here's a closer look at the ferry.

I'll  bet there are a lot of dogs with paws full of seaweed and sand.

This starfish was trying for shade and privacy while he waited for the tide to come back in.

I have a feeling that this crab did not go back in the water...

As a bonus, there was a clear view of Mt Baker.
