The West Point Lighthouse is about 10 minutes drive from downtown Seattle. Public parking is not available at the lighthouse but you can hike to the lighthouse from Discovery Park which has plenty of parking. Trails are well maintained and it takes 40 minutes to walk from Discovery Park to the Light house. On clear days, the reward is seeing Mt Rainier appearing to float above Seattle.
From the parking lot, take the Hidden Valley trail to the lighthouse. The North Beach trail loops back to the parking lot. Photos 1 and 2 above were taken from Hidden Valley trail where it hits South Beach. The view is awesome.
